Since a = F / m, to change a, there must be a change either in the net force applied on the object or in the mass of the object.

Is Acceleration is the magnitude of average velocity?

No. Acceleration is (change of velocity) divided by (time interval in which it changed). If velocity doesn't change, then there is no acceleration.


What agents would cause a change in centripetal acceleration?

Centripetal Acceleration is the ratio of the square of the velocity and radius ac=v2/r So if we change the velocity of the circulating object or change the radius of the revolution, centripetal acceleration is changed


Does mass need to be changed to newtons to find the acceleration?

Mass can't be changed to newtons. The newton is a unit of force, not mass.In order to find the acceleration, you need to know the mass and the force.Then, the acceleration is (force) divided by (mass).


What 2 ways causes an object's velocity to change?

If an object's speed changes, or it heads off in a new direction, its velocity has changed. Because of friction and gravity 1. acceleration 2. deceleration 3. change of direction


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 does an object's acceleration change?

Acceleration is change of velocity / time.


What is the change in velocity over time?

acceleration a----->velocity=acceleration x time: v=a x t


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.


How do you find the acceleration?

Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)


How is acceleration related to the change in speed?

A change in speed (and/or direction) is acceleration.


What are acceleration examples?

Examples of acceleration are change in speed, change in direction, or both.


How do you find average acceleration?

Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)
