There's no connection. What you can say however is that the

directions of force and acceleration are always the same.

Why the force and velocity are in perpendicular direction?

In general, force and velocity do not have to be in the same direction; they can be at any angle.


How the direction of the force of kinetic friction is related to the direction of an object's motion?

Friction force works against the motion of the object. In other words friction force has the opponent direction of the velocity of the object.


How is direction of acceleration related to direction of momentum?

It isn't. The direction of momentum is the same as the direction of the velocity - of the movement. The direction of acceleration, on the other hand, is the same as the direction of the net force that acts on an object - and this force can be in any direction.


How are the direction of the an objects acceleration and direction of the same object change in velocity related?

if the force isnt inline , resolve into axial and lateral forces, the original force bieng the hypotonuse


What is the effect of gravity on velocity?

Gravity is a force and any force acting on a body changes its velocity in the direction of the force.


The acceleration of an object depends on the force exerted on what?

I am not sure exactly but i got something like mass & force, it is directly related to the strength of the force & inversely related to the objects mass.You are right, this is Newton's Second Law of motion.Acceleration describes change of velocity of an object with time. (It's rate of change of velocity.)


How is motion related to velocity?

If an object is in motion it has a Velocity, which is speed and direction.


Does force includes both speed and direction?

velocity


What is the speed and direction of an object called?

Speed with direction is called Velocity


What happens to the velocity of a moving body if you change the direction in which the body is moving?

It depends how you changed the direction of the body. If the body is hit by an external force in the direction of motion, the velocity should increase. If the body is hit by an external force in the opposite direction of motion, velocity will decrease.


Is Velocity the force that resists motion or movement?

Hmmm. I don't think velocity is a force at all. Velocity is a vector that describes the speed and the direction of an object. It is the inertia of a mass that is related to resistance to motion. In fact, the amount of energy it takes to change an object's velocity is an indirect measure of the object's mass.


Velocity and acceleration related?

Acceleration is the rate at which velocity is changing, with the direction of the change.
