If a train is slowing down is it accelerating?
This depends on how you define your axes. Let's assume they're defined as normal (being positive is accelerating, negative is breaking, and for velocity positive is driving forward, negative is driving in reverse). Then of course, you are speeding up. This simply means the train was in reverse, but it's accelerating in the positive direction now.
How can a car slowing down also be accelerating?
A car can be slowing down while still accelerating if its speed is decreasing but the direction of its velocity is changing. For example, if a car is moving in a curve, its speed may be decreasing but it is still accelerating towards the center of the turn. This is known as centripetal acceleration.
When an object slows down it has no acceleration?
When an object slows down it is still accelerating.
Why are you accelerating when you go around a corner at a constant speed?
Acceleration is any change in velocity. It could be a change in speed or direction. Technically, even slowing down is acceleration.
Do you accelerate when you turn the corner on your bike?
No, you do not accelerate when you turn a corner on a bike. In fact, you may need to slow down or adjust your speed to navigate the turn safely. Accelerating during a turn can cause loss of traction and result in a fall.
Is a car still accelerating if it's slowing down?
Yes it has negative acceleration, which is acceleration in the opposite direction of travel. It is called deceleration.
How is it possible for a car to be accelerating if its speed is a steady 65 mph?
The term accelerating means increasing in speed, so if a car holds its speed steady at 65 mph, it is not accelerating. It is still running its engine, to overcome air resistance and other forms of friction, but that is not the same thing as acceleration.
Use accelerating in a sentence?
My car is accelerating at 10 miles per hour per hour.
How does a cheetah slow down?
By D-accelerating
Why does an object slow down and still have acceleration?
An object can slow down and still have acceleration if its velocity is decreasing but not necessarily reaching zero. Acceleration is a vector quantity, so it can be negative if it is in the opposite direction of the velocity. In this case, the object is still accelerating even though its speed is decreasing.
A negative slope on the velocity vs time graph indicates that the object is not accelerating true or false?
False. A negative slope on the velocity vs time graph indicates that the object is decelerating or slowing down, but it is still accelerating in the opposite direction.
When was Down on the Corner created?
Down on the Corner was created in 1969-09.
