The falcon is a bird, so it would dive from the air, at a height of around 200ft

Is it possible for a body with zero velocity to have non-zero acceleration?
Yes, but only for a single instant in time. When you throw a golf ball or a rock straight up, it has the constant downward acceleration of gravity from the moment it leaves your hand, but its velocity is certainly not constant. The velocity steadily decreases until the peak of the toss, and then it switches from upward to downward velocity. At the very peak, the velocity is zero for an instant.
What is constant velocity in terms of physics?
Constant velocity means constant speed in a straight line.
Is a body has zero velocity with non-zero acceleration?
both the magnitudes and the directions of the initial and final velocities are the same.
Can an object have a constant speed and velocity at the same time?
Yes. An object moving in a straight line at constant speed has constant velocity.
In uniform circulation motion is the velocity constant?
No. The direction keeps changing. Constant velocity means constant speed in a straight line.
How is acceleration due to gravity be zero in a parachute?
At terminal velocity (constant velocity), the acceleration is zero, but prior to that, there is a downward acceleration.
What is the slope of a constant velocity?
constant slope. really anything will work as long as it stays the same. so if your line is straight then you have a constant velocity. :)
An object has initial velocity in the upward direction a final velocity in the downward direction and undergoes constant acceleration What can you say about its average acceleration?
If, as you say, its acceleration is "constant", then the average is exactly equal to that constant.
What does mean the velocity remains constant?
there is no acceleration if the body is moving with constant velocity
What is a definition for the scientific term constant motion?
It is motion in a straight line at a constant velocity.
If a car moves at constant speed also moving at constant velocity give an example?
A car moving at constant speed in a straight line is also moving at constant velocity.
What is the different between constant velocity and constant speed?
constant velocity is when you maintain speed and direction, this usually is in a straight line, and constant speed means that your speed is always constant at all times.
