if an object is moving without any net force or acceleration, it is moving at constant speed, or constant velocity. For example a satellite orbiting the earth is moving at constant speed, a car traveling at 60 mph, a wind of 20 mph. etc.

Can a body have constant speed and still be accelerating give example?

Yes. The simplest example is an object moving at a constant speed in a circle.


What is an example of constant motion?

A ball rolling at a constant speed at the same rate of speed on a still surface.


Can you also give an example of something that accelerates while traveling at constant velocity?

Yes, an object traveling in a circular path at a constant speed is accelerating because its direction is constantly changing. An example would be a car moving along a curved road at a constant speed.


What is speed that does not change - called?

constant


An object can be accelerated even though its speed remains constant give an example of such a situation?

An example of an object being accelerated even though its speed remains constant is a car traveling down a hill. Even if the driver maintains constant pressure, the car will accelerate due to the incline of the hill.


What is an example of an object moving at constant speed and constant velocity?

An object moving in a straight line at a speed of 50 km/h with a constant velocity of 50 km/h in the same direction is an example of constant speed and constant velocity.


If a car moves at constant speed also moving at constant velocity give an example?

An example of a car moving at constant speed and constant velocity would be a car driving along a straight road with no change in direction, where the speedometer shows a steady reading, and there are no changes in velocity or direction of motion. This means the car is moving at a consistent speed in a straight line without any acceleration or deceleration.


Does constant speed give you constant velocity?

No. The speed can be consant but direction can change and thus the velocity changes.


What is an Example of constant velocity?

constant velocity means the speed and direction are the same.


How can acceleration be constant if it is an increase in speed?

Exactly the same way that the speed can be constant but the distance keeps increasing.If the acceleration happens to be an increase in speed, then "constant" accelerationmeans that the speed will increase just as much in the 7th minute, for example,as it increased in the 4th minute, for example, etc.Acceleration can be the rate at which speed changes. So if the acceleration is constant,then the speed is changing at a constant rate.(Note: Acceleration doesn't have to be a change of speed. It can also be a changeof direction, at constant speed.)


Can an object be accelerated if it is moving with constant speed if yes explain giving example?

Yes, it can. Perhaps the simplest example is when an object moves at constant speed, in a circle. In this case, the speed doesn't change; the velocity does.


What is nature of velocity in constant speed?

Velocity magnitude is unchanging at constant speed. The direction might change (velocity is a vector with both size (speed) and direction) if , for example, you are driving around a curve at a constant speed.
