Is a car turning a corner balanced force?
No. The car is accelerating using an unbalanced force. Balanced force does not accelerate.
When a car rounds a corner going at constant speed is its acceleration is zero?
centripetal acceleration must be considered. dont forget gravity!
A car accelerates from to at a rate of How far does it travel while accelerating?
A car accelerates from to at a rate of How far does it travel while accelerating
Use accelerating in a sentence?
My car is accelerating at 10 miles per hour per hour.
How can you accelerate when your speed does not?
By changing direction. Acceleration is a change in velocity. Since velocity takes direction into account, while speed does not, an object can having a changing velocity even while its speed remains the same. And while that object is changing its velocity by changing its direction, it is accelerating, regardless of its speed remaining constant. For example, if a car is driving north at constant speed of 20mph, its speed is 20mph, while its velocity is 20mph towards the north. At this point, the car is not accelerating. Now if the car turns a corner to head east while maintaining its speed of 20mph, its velocity is changing from 20mph northward to 20mph north-eastward and finally to 20mph eastward. As it is turning, it is accelerating. However, as soon as it stops turning, the car is no longer accelerating.
If a car is traveling 30MPH around a curve is it accelerating?
Yes and No. No in the sense that the speed is not changing. What you are feeling is the change in direction as the car rounds the turn, an effect called centripetal acceleration.
When was Ukridge Rounds a Nasty Corner created?
Ukridge Rounds a Nasty Corner was created in 1924.

No. The car is accelerating using an unbalanced force. Balanced force does not accelerate.
An object cannot be accelerating if it has a constant speedtrue or false?
An object with a constant (vector)velocity is not accelerating. An object with a constand (scalar)speed can actually be accelerating, a car with a constant speed that passes around a corner is changing direction and is subjected to a lateral acceleration.
Would you consider a car turning around a corner at a constant speed to be accelerating?
It depends on which direction you are resolving the acceleration from. If you use the original direction of the car as it turns it is decelerating as the speed it is moving in that direction is decreasing. If you resolve from the direction which the car will be going towards then it is accelerating as its speed in that direction is increasing.

Noice coming from car when accelerating?
noise and jolting is present whilst car is idolling and accelerating
What measurements or observations tell that a car is accelerating?
Frame of reference is the measurement or observation that tells you that a car is accelerating. It uses the second law of motion to tell you rather or not the car is accelerating.

Why is my car weak on accelerating?
your car might be weak on accelerating because it isn't firing on all cylinders.

What are understeer and oversteer?
Oversteer is a driving term used to describe the effect of the rear tyres of the car losing traction while turning a corner. This results in the back of the car sliding towards the outside of the corner and can result in a spin if not corrected by 'counter steering'.
