If velocity is constant then what is the true accelleration?
In a theoretical scenario with constant velocity, the true acceleration would typically be zero.
Is it true that a projectile launched into space at any angle will have a constant horizontal velocity?
If space were entirely empty this would be true, but even minute gravitational forces can change the trajectory and velocity of a projectile.
When is an object's average velocity equal to its instantaneous velocity?
If the velocity is constant (i.e., there is no acceleration). Terminal velocity is an example, although any constant velocity would fit this description.
Why is the velocity 0 when your speed is constant?
It's not. If you speed is constant (but not zero), then your velocity won't be zero, either.You may be confusing this with the following: If your VELOCITY (not your speed) is constant, then your ACCELERATION is zero. Acceleration refers to how quickly velocity changes, so if velocity doesn't change at all, acceleration is zero.
Would instantaneous velocity yield the same value as average velocity?
Only if the velocity is constant.
If the velocity is constant describe th slope?
The slope of a time-distance chart would be a constant. The slope of a time-velocity chart would be 0.
When can you have no acceleration?
To make acceleration equal zero. The velocity must be constant. For example, if velocity is constant at 10 m/s^2 its acceleration is zero. The same is true if velocity is 0 m/s^2.
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.
What would the acceleration of a turtle that is moving with a constant velocity of 0.25 miles per second to the right?
The acceleration would be zero because the turtle is moving at a constant speed
Can constant velocity be zero?
Yes. Zero velocity is a velocity; if it is always zero then it is a constant velocity.
If an object has zero acceleration what two things could be true about its velocity?
The velocity does not change direction or magnitude. The object 1) may not be moving, or it 2) may be moving at a constant velocity. In the case of the latter, that means it's moving in the same direction and at a constant speed.
What is the velocity in which the body covers equal displacements in equal intervals of ttime?
In that case, the velocity is said to be constant.
