If you were standing in an enclosed car moving at constant velocity would you have to lean in some special way to compensate for the car's motion?

no because the car has a steering wheel.

Is constant speed constant velocity?
No. Velocity includes a direction vector, which speed does not have.
Why achanging velocity cannot maintaining constant speed?
A changing velocity can maintain constant speed if the motion is circular. The constant change in direction is a change in velocity, even if the speed is constant.
Can an object have zero velocity and nonzero acceleration?
Yes. An object moving at constant velocity has zero acceleration. The constant velocity van be any constant including zero velocity. Mathematics acceleration a=dv/dt = 0. Solving this gives v = constant.
Why is acceleration zero when the body is moving with a constant velocity?
Acceleration is the CHANGE in velocity; you're assuming CONSTANT velocity. So the acceleration is zero.
What is the value of this constant velocity if an object travels at a constant velocity for a time period of 11.31 s over a displacement of 10.55m?
Velocity = Displacement/Time =10.55m/11.31s = 0.932m/s Value of constant velocity is 0.932m/s.
Can constant velocity be zero?
Yes. Zero velocity is a velocity; if it is always zero then it is a constant velocity.
What is the velocity in which the body covers equal displacements in equal intervals of ttime?
In that case, the velocity is said to be constant.
What is your acceleration if you have a constant velocity?
If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.
Can an object have constant velocity and but variable speed?
No. Velocity has two parts, speed and direction A constant velocity means that both the speed and the direction must be constant. So a constant velocity must have a constant speed.
Can you go around a curve with constant velocity?
Yes, it is. Trajectory also depends of direction of acceleration, not only it's magnitude. When you consider circular orbit, the agnitude of centripetal acceleration is constant, but the vector directions changes every moment to point constantly at the center.
Why areal velocity is constant in central force?
If the force is constant then this will make the velocity of the object spinning constant as well, and for the velocity to be constant all the forces must be balanced and therefore constant
If you have a constant velocity do you have to have a constant speed?
Yes, speed is the scalar of velocity.
What is constant velocity in terms of physics?
Constant velocity means constant speed in a straight line.
Moving at constant velocity is also moving with constant speed?
Velocity is Speed in a given direction. Moving at constant velocity is equivalent to say moving with a constant speed in a specified direction. So, moving at constant velocity implicitly means moving with constant speed.
How can you determine the speed of an object that has constant motion if you have a distance vs time graph of the motion?
If constant motion means constant velocity then, total distance / total time = avg velocity => avg speed constant velocity => avg velocity = velocity
How is constant velocity different from changing velocity?
"Constant" means that it doesn't change.
What is an Example of constant velocity?
constant velocity means the speed and direction are the same.
