If an object is moving at a constant velocity what do you know about its acceleration?
"Acceleration" means change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero.
When velocity is positive and acceleration is zero what happens to an objects motion?
When acceleration is zero, then the object is moving in a straight line with constant speed. (That's the effective meaning of constant velocity.)
Zero acceleration will the velocity be constant?
Whenever velocity is constant, the acceleration is zero. This also works when the velocity is zero, the acceleration is zero. That pretty much means the object isn't moving. But, yes/ If velocity is constant, accleration is zero.
Why is acceleration zero when the body is moving with a constant velocity?
Acceleration is the CHANGE in velocity; you're assuming CONSTANT velocity. So the acceleration is zero.
What is your acceleration if you have a constant velocity?
If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.
What happens to the acceleration of a simple pendulum as it approaches the lowest point of its swing?
The velocity reaches a maximum, and the pendulum will begin to decelerate. Because the acceleration is the derivative of the velocity, and the derivative at the location of an extrema is zero, the acceleration goes to zero.
How is velocity of zero different from an accerlation at zero?
Acceleration is changing velocity. Zero velocity means no motion. Zero acceleration means constant, unchanging motion.
What is another word for zero velocity?
Zero velocity = No acceleration
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.
Why is the body moving with a uniform velocity is zero?
The body is not zero, but the sum of all forces on it is. -- "Uniform velocity" means no acceleration. -- Acceleration is force/mass . -- If acceleration is zero, that's an indication that force must be zero.
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 you have a zero acceleration but non zero velocity explain it with help of a graph?
Yes, you can. Zero acceleration simply means there is no CHANGE in velocity. It doesn't mean there is no velocity.
