When traveling in a westerly direction do you set the clock forward when you change time zones?
No, you turn clocks back as you travel west into other time zones, but you advance by 24 hours when you cross the international date line westward.
Why is knowing just the speed at which a hurricane is traveling toward land not enough information to be able to warn people to evacuate?
Because the speed might change and the direction of travel might change. Hurricanes are not perfectly predictable.
Does a hurricane ever change its direction of rotation?
No. A hurricane will not change its direction of rotation.
What altitude there will be a change in the direction of blood flow?
Blood flow doesn't change direction. They always head for the same direction.
What additional factor will be change if the direction of a current flow is change?
direction of magnetic field
When traveling in a westerly direction do you set the clock forward when you change time zones?
No, you turn clocks back as you travel west into other time zones, but you advance by 24 hours when you cross the international date line westward.
Are you accelerating if you are traveling in a constant direction with constant speed and explain?
If you are traveling at a constant speed with changing direction there is a change in velocity, so you are accelerating.
What wind direction change usually occurs as a cold front moves through an area?
Wind direction will usually be backing 30 to 90 degrees when a cold front passes through. So if you have southerly winds before a front, they will back to westerly or south westerly winds after the front.
Can a bus change the direction of its velocity when traveling with a constant acceleration?
yes
What quantity describes how quickly you change how fast you're traveling or how quickly you change your direction?
velocity?
What quantity describes how quickly you change how fast you're traveling or how quickly you change direction?
velocity?
Do tornadoes only move forward?
Usually move straight in their path, but they can change direction.
Can a bus change direction of its velocity when traveling with constant acceleration?
Yes, if the acceleration is not colinear with the existing velocity.
Does a car traveling along a curved path at constant speed have a constant momentum?
No, the magnitude will be constant, but the direction of the momentum will change to reflect the direction of the velocity.
Can you be accelerating if you are traveling at constant speed?
Velocity is speed in a certain direction. You can keep speed the same, and if you change direction then you have changed velocity.
If the speed of an does NOT change the object is traveling at a what?
It is travelling at a constant speed. This does not mean that there is no acceleration or that the direction of motion remains the same.
Can forces change an objects direction?
If I am reading your question correctly, you want to now if balanced forces can change the direction an object is traveling. The answer is no. Balanced forces always produce no net change, hence the term "balanced". You need an unbalanced force to change the direction of an object, or to set an object in motion from a standstill.
