The reason the rpm will go up but the car doesn't go higher than 40mph, may be that the transmission gears are burnt. you should take it to a transmission specialist to get a better diagnose. Burnt or low tranny fluid i would say that you have a plugged catylatic converter. your rpms will increase and you gain no speed

Why does temperature does not rise during the process of boiling and melting though heat energy is constantly supplied?

How does decreasing force affect acceleration if the mass stays the same?

ANY net force will cause an acceleration. If the force is reduced, there will be less acceleration, though.

Why does the acceleration of a merry go round change even though the speed stays the same?

Acceleration is always towards the center. In other words, for a person on the merry-go-round, the direction of the acceleration changes all the time; therefore the acceleration changes.


Why there is no acceleration along x axis during projectile motion?

There is no force that acts upon the object in that direction. Gravity only acts on the y axis. Though there is some wind resistance that does cause a negative acceleration in the x direction. You are probably just being told to ignore this as it is usually negligible.


A situation in which you can accelerate even though you speed does not change?

"Acceleration" means a change of speed or direction of motion, or both.If you change direction ... like turning a corner ... then there is acceleration,even though your speed is constant.Anything traveling on a circular track, even at a constant speed, has constantacceleration.
