Assuming its engines are off, it would travel at a constant speed ONLY if there is no force of gravity that changes its velocity. In practice, there are always forces that will change its velocity, at least in the long term.

What does it mean to travel at a constant speed?

Travel at one speed for a period time e.g on a 30 mph road you would travel at a constant speed of 30 mph


The speed at which you travel in space unaided?

The speed ranges for rockets.The speed of the rocket depends on the power of the rocket. The speed may vary from 5000 kph to 40000 kph. You can only travel at 40000 kph only if the engine is at full thrust.


Do objects travel at constant speed?

No, objects do not always travel at a constant speed. The speed of an object can change due to various factors such as external forces, acceleration, and friction. In a vacuum with no external forces acting on it, an object will travel at a constant speed due to inertia.


How long it will take a time if people will go to sun from earth by rocket?

It would take about 19 years to travel by rocket from Earth to the Sun, assuming the rocket is traveling at a speed of 36,000 miles per hour. The distance between the Earth and the Sun is about 93 million miles, so the time to travel will depend on the speed of the rocket.


What is it called to travel without changing speed?

You have a constant speed.


At what speed does a rocket that has to travel to the moon travels?

41,120 Km/hr That would be 25,700 miles per hour.


How many hours would it take to travel 384 miles?

The time it takes to travel a distance is dependent on the speed at which you are traveling. If you are traveling at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour, it would take 6.4 hours to travel 384 miles (384 miles ÷ 60 mph = 6.4 hours). However, if you are traveling at a different speed, you would need to adjust the calculation accordingly.


What is the normal speed for a rocket - shuttle?

a rocket or shuttle will travel up to 25,000 mile per hour


What is the property of an object that travels the same distance each second?

Such an object is said to travel at a constant speed. If it doesn't change direction, it is also said to travel at constant velocity.


How do you find the constant speed of something?

If you know that the speed is constant, just divide the distance by the time it takes to travel that distance.


Why does a car traveling at constant speed can accelerate while a car at constant velocity connot?

The question is inherantly flawed. A car traveling at a constant speed cannot accelerate, if it could it's speed would not be constant. "Constant speed" means that speed is not increasing or decreasing but remain consistent over time. For example, if you cover 10 feet during each second, your speed is constant. "Constant velocity" implies constant speed, but it has an additional constraint: you can't change your direction. If you travel constantly at 10 feet per second in a straight line, then your speed is constant and your velocity is constant. But if you travel constantly at 10 feet per second in a wiggly line (or a circle, or anything not straight), then your speed is constant but your velocity is NOT constant. If you travel at a constant speed but change direction, velocity is changed. Or if you travel in the same direction but change the speed, velocity is changed. Average speed is is easier: distance/time So, your question should read: Why can a car traveling at an average speed accelerate, but a car traveling at constant speed cannot? Or Why am I asking the wrong questions?


What is the equation for constant speed?

The equation for constant speed is distance = speed x time, where distance is the total distance traveled, speed is the constant speed at which the object is moving, and time is the duration of travel.
