Two ways. Use an equation of motion: u=initial velocity, v=final velocity, a=acceleration, t= time and s=displacement:

v=u+at

s=ut+1/2at2

v2- u2 = 2as

Or, plot a v/t graph and find the area underneath it at a particular time.

Why is acceleration zero with uniform velocity?

Uniform velocity means the velocity is not changing. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. If velocity isn't changing, the rate of change is zero.


Can uniform angular velocity has acceleration?

No, uniform angular velocity means no angular acceleration.


How do you find distance with uniform velocity time final velocity and initial velocity?

If the velocity is uniform, then the final velocity and the initial velocity are the same. Perhaps you meant to say uniform acceleration. In any event, the question needs to be stated more precisely.


What's the difference between instantaneous velocity and instantaneous acceleration?

Instantaneous velocity is the rate at which an object is moving in a uniform direction, distance per unit time, at any given instant in time. instantaneous acceleration is the rate at which an object's velocity is changing at any given instant in time


For uniform circular motion the quantity that does not remain constant is?

this my sound rather daft but this is a bit of a trick question, the speed is the same so straight away you would think the acceleration is constant right....???? Wrong the displacement of the object is changing (displacement is the distance being travelled with a direction, a vector quantity.) as the displacement is changing so is the velocity, as velocity is displacement/time. as the velocity is changing so is the acceleration because acceleration is then change in velocity divided by time.


Why the velocity and acceleration of body moving with uniform speed in circular path will be mutually perpendicular?

as direction is changing


What is the difference between uniform and variable velocity?

Uniform velocity is velocity unaffected by acceleration. Variable velocity is velocity affected by acceleration. Lauren "Physics above all!"


If an object is moving at unifrom acceleration what is its velocity?

A body moving at a uniform speed may have a uniform velocity, or its velocity could be changing. How could that be? Let's look. The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity is speed with a direction vector associated with it. If a car is going from, say, Cheyenne, Wyoming to the Nebraska state line at a steady speed of 70 miles per hour, its velocity is 70 miles per hour east. Simple and easy. Uniform speed equals uniform velocity. (Yes, I-80 isn't perfectly straight there. Let's not split hairs.) But a car moving around a circular track at a uniform speed is constantly changing direction. Its speed is constant, but its velocity is changing every moment because the directionit is going is changing. Speed is uniform, but velocity isn't. As asked, uniform speed is a uniform distance per unit of time. And this will yield a uniform distance per unit of time in its velocity, but the direction vector may be uniform or it may be changing each moment, as illustrated.


How do you find the uniform acceleration if the speed and acceleration are given?

Find out the time using speed and acceleration, (time=speed/acceleration) and then use it to find out uniform velocity. From that find out uniform acceleration. (as uniform acceleration is equal changes of velocity over equal intervals of time)


What is the importance of uniform acceleration graph in physics what is instantaneous velocity?

The slope of a velocity-time graph that shows uniform acceleration is the actual acceleration. Instantaneous velocity is the velocity of a body at a particular moment in time.


What will be acceleration of a car moving in a circular motion with constant speed.?

If body is moving in a circle with uniform or constant speed its acceleration will be uniform as velocity i.e. to say direction is changing at every point.


When a cars velocity is uniform what it is acceleration?

Acceleration is change of velocity divided by time; so if the velocity doesn't change, acceleration is zero.
