A body is being accelerated if its speed OR direction are changing.
A satellite in a perfectly circular orbit around the earth ... like a TV satellite ... is moving at constant speed. But, technically, since its direction is always changing, to keep it on a circle, it's experiencing constant acceleration.
What else can I help you with?
Can a body constant speed still be accelerating with example?
No, a body moving at a constant speed cannot be accelerating. Acceleration is defined as a change in velocity over time, so if the speed of the body remains constant, there is no acceleration. For example, a car moving at a steady 60 mph on a straight road is not accelerating.
When are you most aware of motion in a moving vehicle - when it is moving steadily in a straight line or when it is accelerating?
You are most aware of motion in a moving vehicle when it is accelerating, as you can feel the change in speed more distinctly. When the vehicle is moving steadily in a straight line, the sensation of motion becomes less noticeable because your body has adapted to the constant speed.
What is the condition in which a body moving with uniform speed has a variable velocity?
The condition in which a body moving with uniform speed has a variable velocity is when the direction of motion changes even though the speed remains constant. This means that the object is accelerating, even though its speed does not change.
What is the slope of the body when it moves with uniform velocity?
When an object moves with uniform velocity, its slope is zero. This means the object is not accelerating and is moving at a constant speed in a straight line.
Can a body have constant speed as well as variable velocity?
No, constant speed implies that the body is moving at a consistent rate, while variable velocity means the direction of motion is changing. It is not possible for a body to have both constant speed and variable velocity simultaneously.
Can a body constant speed still be accelerating with example?
No, a body moving at a constant speed cannot be accelerating. Acceleration is defined as a change in velocity over time, so if the speed of the body remains constant, there is no acceleration. For example, a car moving at a steady 60 mph on a straight road is not accelerating.
Can a body have constant speed and still be accelerating give example?
Yes. The simplest example is an object moving at a constant speed in a circle.

What is the condition in which a body moving with uniform speed has a variable velocity?
The condition in which a body moving with uniform speed has a variable velocity is when the direction of motion changes even though the speed remains constant. This means that the object is accelerating, even though its speed does not change.
What is static inertia?
Static inertia is when a body at rest wants to stay at rest, or a body that is moving at a constant speed stays at the constant speed.
When do forces balance?
Balanced forces occur when a body is at rest, and when a body is moving at a constant speed in a constant direction.
Examples of constant speed but changing acceleration?
A body moving with constant speed in a circular path has acceleration changing at every point.
What is the slope of the body when it moves with uniform velocity?
When an object moves with uniform velocity, its slope is zero. This means the object is not accelerating and is moving at a constant speed in a straight line.

When do you consider a body moving at a constant velocity?
When it's moving in a straight line at a constant speed. And it has nothing to do with my judgment or opinion. That's the definition.
Can a body have constant speed as well as variable velocity?
No, constant speed implies that the body is moving at a consistent rate, while variable velocity means the direction of motion is changing. It is not possible for a body to have both constant speed and variable velocity simultaneously.
Is it possible when a body to have acceleration when moving constant speed?
Yes. "Acceleration" does not mean "speeding up". It means any change in speedor direction of motion. If the body is moving on a curve, even at a constant speed,its direction is changing, so there is acceleration.
