Lack of info
Hesitation causes:
Fuel filter, injector/s dirty, ignition problems are places to start

Why is an object traveling at a constant speed but turning left said to be accelerating?
Acceleration is not a change in speed, but a change in velocity. Velocity is, unlike speed, a vector, and so as the direction of velocity changes there must be an acceleration to cause that change.
Your dodge Dakota is making a clicking noise only when accelerating What is it?
Its usually a U joint. Click under acceleration . While turning,a CV joint. Grinding or moaning is usually a bearing.
Would you consider a car turning around a corner at a constant speed to be accelerating?
It depends on which direction you are resolving the acceleration from. If you use the original direction of the car as it turns it is decelerating as the speed it is moving in that direction is decreasing. If you resolve from the direction which the car will be going towards then it is accelerating as its speed in that direction is increasing.
Can an object be accelerated if it has a constant speed?
Yes. Acceleration means either speed or direction is changing. If direction is changing,then that's acceleration, even if speed is constant.
Is there any difference between angular acceleration and radial acceleration?
Yes. A ngular acceleration is to do with something turning. Radial acceleration is linear acceleration perpendicular to the angular acceleration.
If a car travels at a constant speed is it accelerating?
No. Acceleration is the change in velocity(speed) over a period time.=====================================Another contributor bristled:Sorry. Velocity and speed are not two different words for the same thing.Velocity means speed and direction, and acceleration means any change in velocity.If the speed is constant but the direction is changing ... like turning a corner or drivingon a circular track ... then velocity is changing, and there is acceleration.
What is an example of an accelerating object but moves in a constant speed?
An accelerating object is one that is changing in either speed or direction. Thus any object that is turning is accelerating while maintaining a constant speed.
How can a car be travelling at a constant speed yet be be accelerating?
Yes - - - if it's turning.
What sort of caster boards are there?
well there are the hi tide caster boards which aren't good at accelerating, the vigor caster board, and the original ripstik which is the best due to its kick tail and nose tail, easy acceleration and well turning. I'd get the ripstik.
What causes a grinding sound when turning and a whining sound when accelerating?
possibly your wheel bearing is on its way out
Why does the car knock when accelerating and turning?
if its front wheel drive its the C V joints in the axles
What are 2 types of acceleration?
-- slowing down -- turning a corner
