What do you call it when an objects velocity changes?

A change in an objects velocity is called acceleration. Velocity is defined as an objects speed of travel AND its direction of travel. Acceleration can change only an objects speed, only its direction or both. If there is no acceleration acting on the object, then the velocity remains constant.


If an objects velocity time graph is a straight line parallel to the taxis what can you conclude about the objects acceleration?

acceleration is zero


How do you calculate an objects acceleration?

Acceleration is an object's change in velocity divided by its change in time. So: acceleration=(final velocity - initial velocity)/(final time - initial time)


How are acceleration and velocity alike and different from each other?

-- both are related to measurements of motion of objects -- acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes


Mass is a measure of an objects resistance to?

To acceleration (change in velocity).


Is acceleration a force that can affect an objects velocity?

Firstly, force is equal to mass of the object into it's acceleration, so acceleration is not a force.Next, the change in velocity of a body over time is called acceleration, so yes, acceleration does affecta body's velocity.


How an objects be motionless and in equilibrium?

When an object is in equilibrium, the acceleration is zero. When the acceleration is zero, the velocity does not change; the non changing velocity includes the case when the velocity has value zero.


Forces that cause an objects velocity to change?

In all cases acceleration.


What is the objects change in speed called?

That's simply called a change in velocity. On the other hand, the rate of change in velocity - how quickly velocity changes - is called acceleration.


What is the objects acceleration from 0 to 1 second?

Acceleration is the change in velocity over a time period. Since you need to know the change in velocity to calculate acceleration, the question being asked is not answerable.


Formula for acceleration of all objects falling to the earth?

a=change in velocity time


What is the relationship between the mass of an object and the objects acceleration?

Momentum=mass*velocity
