Best Answer

this means to not have speed or direction at all. this means that the object is at rest.

Is it possible for an object to have zero velocity?

Zero relative velocity to another object, sure no problem. Zero absolute velocity, not possible as there is no absolute reference to compare to.


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.


How can an object motionless and in equilibrium?

When an object is in equilibrium, the acceleration is zero. When the acceleration is zero, the velocity does not change; the non changing velocity includes the case when the velocity has value zero.


What is the acceleration if velocity is zero?

velocity may be zero or may not be zero i.e. if the object may continue to move with uniform velocity.


What is the velocity if acceleration is zero?

velocity may be zero or may not be zero i.e. if the object may continue to move with uniform velocity.


Can an object change its direction when the magnitude of its velocity is zero?

If the velocity is zero, the object is not moving. So if it moves at all, it is changing direction.


Does an object have net force if it is motionless?

Yes, but the net force is ZERO! If an object is moving at constant velocity, the sum of the forces acting upon it is zero. When an object is motionless, its constant velocity is zero. If at any time the sum of the forces -- sometimes called the net force -- is non-zero, the object will accelerate in the direction of the resultant force.


What is an object at rest has its velocitty?

An object at rest has a velocity of zero.


What is an object that's not moving?

A stationary object with velocity of zero.


What is the acceleration of an object at terminal velocity?

zero


Is zero the velocity of an object at rest?

Yes.


Only one force acts on an object can the object have zero acceleration or zero velocity?

It is not possible for acceleration to have zero acceleration because the force acting on the object is gravity and g=9.8m/s squared. Gravity is the acceleration It can however have a zero velocity
