The velocity might still change, in the case of a force applied at a right angle to the movement. In this case, since the object's direction changes, its velocity changes.

What would happen to an object's velocity if no work was being done on the object?

The velocity might still change, in the case of a force applied at a right angle to the movement. In this case, since the object's direction changes, its velocity changes.


What happen to an object when it has positive acceleration?

Either of these is referred to as positive acceleration: A) the object's velocity is increasing in the frame of reference B) the object is being moved in a positive direction in a coordinate plane


If you exert a force on an object in motion what will change?

If you exert a force on an object in motion you will change its velocity, velocity being a vector quantity of speed and direction.


The speed and direction of a moving object determines the what of an object?

You might be referring to velocity. It is a vector physical quantity and both speed AND direction are required to define it. One can also consider velocity as the rate at which an object changes position.


Are mass and velocity forces?

No!! Force is how much work is being exerted on an object. NOT how much grav. pull (mass) or how much its accelerating (velocity)!


What happens when the longer a force acts on moving object?

If a force is being applied to a moving object, it will change its velocity (it will accelerate) appropriately.


If an object is being accelerated can its velocity be constant?

No. Acceleration is any change of velocity.But its speed can be constant.


How are motion and acceleration different?

In Simple motion, there is no force being applied. The moving object moves in a straight line with constant velocity. In acceleration, there is a force applied. The object's velocity is changing. The first derivative of acceleration is velocity. The first derivative of velocity is distance. (Derivative is a calculus thing.)


Is kinetic energy is the energy an object has to due to its motion?

kinetic energy-energy in motion object that change from being at rest


When does an acceleration becomes zero?

Acceleration being zero is equivalent to the statement that an object's velocity doesn't change.


What is happening to an object when it has an acceleration?

Either of these is referred to as positive acceleration: A) the object's velocity is increasing in the frame of reference B) the object is being moved in a positive direction in a coordinate plane


What two factors does acceleration depend on?

-- the magnitude and direction of the force acting on an object -- the mass of the object being forcefully acted upon
