Under what circumstances can an object move in a circular path without being accelerated?

It can't. If there is a change in direction, there is a change in velocity ("velocity" includes the direction), and therefore, an acceleration.It can't.

A change in velocity constitutes a change in direction because velocity includes direction.

Does a hurricane ever change its direction of rotation?

No. A hurricane will not change its direction of rotation.


How is a change in an object's direction related to the applied force?

In order to change direction, the applied force (represented as a Vector) must change DIRECTION. A change in magnitude of the Force is not necessary.


Is the moon's acceleration expressed as a change in speed or a change in direction?

The moon's acceleration is expressed as a change in direction.


What is the rate of change for linear equations?

It is the gradient: the change in the vertical direction divided by the change in the horizontal direction.


What are the kinds of motion according to the change in direction and change in speed?

Acceleration is a change in speed or direction. Velocity is the speed and direction. ex. 41 mph northeast


What altitude there will be a change in the direction of blood flow?

Blood flow doesn't change direction. They always head for the same direction.


Does a wedge change the direction of the force?

Why does a change of speed produce a change in direction?

It doesn't. For example, you can go in a straight line, and speed up or slow down, without changing direction. And if there is both a change in direction and a change in speed, the change of speed wouldn't be the CAUSE for a change in direction. (On the other hand, both can be caused by a force applied to an object.)
