What is acceleration when velocity is constant?
there is no acceleration if the body is moving with constant velocity
Is it possible for a body to have acceleration when moving with constant velocity explain?
the question is very simple.no a body does not have acceleration when it is moving with constant velocity ,because a body posses acceleration when its velocity is not remain conserved or constant.yes if a body have constant speed it may have acceleration but not in case of constant velocity.
When a body has constnat velocity what is the acceleration?
The acceleration is zero for a body having constant velocity.
What is the acceleration of a body moving with a constant velocity?
Acceleration is zero when the body is moving with a constant velocity. This is one of the newton's laws.
Is it possible for a body to have zero velocity but constant acceleration?
Yes. A body having zero velocity has a constant acceleration of zero.
Why is acceleration zero when the body is moving with a constant velocity?
Acceleration is the CHANGE in velocity; you're assuming CONSTANT velocity. So the acceleration is zero.
Is it possible for a body to have acceleration when with constant velocity?
No. The definition of acceleration is a change in velocity, i.e. speed and/or direction. So constant velocity means zero acceleration.
If a body is moving with constant velocity is it moving with constant acceleration?
Yes. that acceleration is zero.
What is your acceleration if you have a constant velocity?
If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.
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.
How do you find final velocity when you have constant acceleration constant velocity and time?
If you have constant acceleration, then you can't have constant velocity. (Unless the acceleration is constantly zero.)Final velocity = [initial velocity] + [ (acceleration) x (time) ]
It is possible for a body to have acceleration when moving with constant speed and velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
What is the acceleration of a object that moves at constant velocity?
Acceleration is change of velocity. If velocity is constant ... "no change" ... then acceleration is zero.
If an object has constant velocity what is its acceleration?
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Constant velocity means zero acceleration.
Is it possible for a body to have an acceleration when moving with constant velocity?
No, when a body is moving with constant velocity then neither the magnitude nor the direction changes, and that's exactly the definition of zero acceleration.
What is the acceleration of a rain drop that falls at a constant velocity?
If the velocity is constant then there is no acceleration. The acceleration is zero.
An object with constant velocity has positive acceleration?
An object with constant velocity has no acceleration.
Why when velocity is constant but acceleration is not constant?
That can't happen. If there is any acceleration at all, then velocity is not constant.
In free fall is the velocity or acceleration constant?
Acceleration is constant.Velocity increases at a constant rate.
The velocity of a body was noted to be constant during five minutes of its motion What was its acceleration during this interval?
Acceleration means speeding up or slowing down, a change in velocity. Since the velocity was constant, the acceleration was. 0
Is it possible that the velocity of a body changes and its acceleration remains constant?
The definition of acceleration is: Any change of velocity, that is, speed or direction of motion. If an object is undergoing constant acceleration, then the definition says that its velocity must be changing.
Can a body move with a constant velocity in an accelerated motion?
No. The definition of acceleration is change in velocity.
It is possible for a body to have acceleration when moving with costant velocity and constant speed?
constant velocity means no acceleration. An object can be moving at constant speed, like a satellite in orbit, but its velocity is changing because direction is changing
