Can an object traveling at constant velocity have acceleration?
No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
Is there an acceleration when an object traveling at constant velocity and why?
No. Acceleration is change of velocity / time. If there is no change in velocity, there is no acceleration.
Can an object traveling at constant velocity have acceleration why?
If a velocity or speed is constant there isn't an acceleration. This is because the acceleration is the change in speed or velocity and if it's constant then there sn't a change.
What is the acceleration of a ball that is traveling at a constant velocity of fifty miles and has been traveling for over 2 minutes?
If an object is traveling at a constant velocity, its acceleration is 0. Even if it traveled for 2 years.
What accelerates while traveling at constant velocity?
An object in uniform circular motion undergoes constant acceleration but moves at constant "speed".Constant "velocity" means no acceleration.
Traveling without changing speed?
When you (or an object) travel without changing speed, then you have constant velocity (speed). This means there is no change in speed (acceleration) when you (or an object) is traveling.
An object traveling at a constant 20 miles per second in a circular path is changing what?
This object is changing its position, its velocity, and its acceleration.This object is changing its position, its velocity, and its acceleration.This object is changing its position, its velocity, and its acceleration.This object is changing its position, its velocity, and its acceleration.
Why is an object traveling in a circular motion?
acceleration is change in velocity.. and velocity constantly changes in circular motion, as the direction constantly changes. This constant change in velocity causes the object to accelerate.
Can an object be accelerating if it has constant velocity?
No. The definition of acceleration is the change in an object's velocity over time. Acceleration must then be zero since velocity remains constant.
When the acceleration of an object is zero what is the velocity at the same time?
As long as acceleration is zero, the object's velocity is constant.
Can an object have constant velocity and non-zero acceleration?
To be very technical regarding the language of the question, No.The question specifies "constant velocity" ... meaning constant speed AND direction.If either of these is changing, then acceleration is present.But if the question meant to say "constant SPEED", then the answer is Yes. An object may be traveling at constant speed, but if its path is not a straight line, then there is acceleration present.
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.
