When an object reaches its termainal speed its acceleration is zero right?
Acceleration is zero when the object's speed and direction stop changing.
Is acceleration how quickly an object's velocity changes?
Yes, acceleration is the how the velocity changes. This also includes when an object turns
If a car turns right can acceleration be zero?
No, any turning object undergoes acceleration because the direction is always changing. The acceleration vector points into the circle of rotation, and the velocity vector is a tangent line to the circle at any given point. The equation is Centripetal Acceleration=v^2/r
Does a change in direction change acceleration?
Not exactly, it can change a few degrees of its direction, but cannot change its velocity because if it stops, the force of motion that goes with it will demolish the car therefore it cannot change it's velocity.++++???? If you put the question in everyday language, it is asking "Can a car change direction while accelerating?"Yes it can, provided the driver is careful to keep the acceleration and instant speed within safe limits. I emphasise 'speed' because the direction hence velocity - a vector value - is changing.I have no idea of the point about the remark about stopping - the supposed consequences are fiction, and the question is about accelerating.
Is direction the course in which an object is moving?
No it isn't. Motion means something moving.Direction has to be established for there to be a change in it. An object that moves forward, stops, and then moves forward again experiences motion without a change in direction. An object that moves forward, stops, and then moves to the right experiences both motion and a change in direction.
If an object is speeding up to the right what direction does its velocity vector point?
From the information given, we don't really know. We know that the acceleration vector points to the right, but the velocity could be anywhere.
What occurs any time an object speeds up or slows down or changes direction?
Acceleration. Acceleration is change in velocity. Velocity is its speed and direction. So when one of these things changes, it is undergoing acceleration. Acceleration can be the object speeding up, slowing down, turning right, turning left, etc. Deceleration is lowering the rate of change. You are experiencing no change if you are moving in a straight line at a constant speed.
When an object reaches its termainal speed its acceleration is zero right?
Acceleration is zero when the object's speed and direction stop changing.
Is it possible for an object to have an acceleration when the speed of the object is constant?
Yes, if apply at the right angles the acceleration can change the object's current direction without effecting its speed.
Is acceleration how quickly an object's velocity changes?
Yes, acceleration is the how the velocity changes. This also includes when an object turns
An unbalanced force to the left accelerates an object in what direction?
The application of force on object (without opposing forces) results in acceleration in the direction of the vector. In this case the unbalanced force to the left will accelerate the object to the right.
Explain the difference between positive and negative acceleration?
well the difference between positive and negative velocity would have to be that if your motion speeds up than you have a positive and when or if your motion slows down then you would have a negative accelerarion!!!!
What is the difference between tangential and radial acceleration?
Answer Both refer to an object that is in a cirular motion. Radial Acceleration is a velocity change of the object as it moves away from the center of rotation. Tangential Velocity is a change of velocity of the object as it moves in a line that is tangential to the circular path it is moving.
If a car turns right can acceleration be zero?
No, any turning object undergoes acceleration because the direction is always changing. The acceleration vector points into the circle of rotation, and the velocity vector is a tangent line to the circle at any given point. The equation is Centripetal Acceleration=v^2/r
What would be the acceleration of a object that is moving with a constant velocity of 0.25 minutes to the right?
1). If neither speed nor direction are changing, then acceleration is zero.2). "minutes" is not a unit of velocity, but we get the idea
What is the direction of the force when the ball is pushed to the right?
A force on an object in a certain direction will tend to move the object in the same direction. Hence, the force is to the right.
Can you move to the right when acceleration is to the left?
Yes. If acceleration is opposite to the direction in which you're moving, then you're slowing down.
