A car that is speeding up; a car slowing down; anything moving in a circle, such as planets moving around the Sun (orbits are approximately circular).
Any object on which an unbalance force is acting will accelerate - i.e., its velocity will change.
To change an object's velocity, you need to apply a force to it. The force will cause the object to accelerate, thus changing its velocity. The magnitude and direction of the force will determine the extent and direction of the velocity change.
No, an object cannot accelerate if its velocity is constant. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity, so if the velocity of an object is constant, its acceleration is zero.
All objects change velocity as they move toward Earth due to the force of gravity. Gravity is a fundamental force of attraction between two objects with mass, causing objects to accelerate towards each other. This acceleration increases the velocity of the object as it falls towards Earth.
When the force on an object is unbalanced, the object's velocity may change in magnitude, in direction, or both. The object may accelerate in the direction of the unbalanced force, decelerate, or change its direction of motion.
In physics, "acceleration" means change of velocity.
A change in mass affects the motion of an object by altering its inertia. Objects with greater mass have greater inertia and require more force to accelerate or decelerate compared to objects with lesser mass. As a result, changes in mass can affect how quickly and easily an object can change its velocity.
Velocity is a change in an object's motion OR direction of motion.
Forces are involved in the movement of objects. Forces can cause objects to accelerate, decelerate, change direction, or remain at a constant velocity. In physics, the relationship between force and motion is described by Newton's laws of motion.
To change the acceleration of a car: speed up, slow down or turn. Acceleration is any change in velocity. Velocity is "how fast" and in "what direction". To speed up is to accelerate (increase the velocity). To slow down is to deaccelerate (decrease the velocity) To turn is also a form of acceleration (changes the direction of the velocity).
No, a particle cannot accelerate if its speed is constant. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and if the speed (magnitude of velocity) remains constant, then the acceleration is zero.
Unbalanced forces cause objects to accelerate or change their speed or direction of motion. They do not cancel each other out, resulting in a net force in a specific direction. This can lead to a change in an object's velocity.
