Tricky. This would be the norm in an ideal inertial reference frame as assumed by Newtonian mechanics.
The problem is that the real world is an accelerated reference frame. Gravitational forces act on just about everything and bend paths and alter velocities. For constant speed though it's hard to beat the photon, but even that has its path altered by gravity and medium.
So, a photon at the edge of space headed directly away from the center of mass of the universe would be an example.

∙ 13y agoAs long as there is some sort of proportionality governing the relationship between two factors, a straight line will be produced. For example, the mathematical equation y = 2x+7 is a linear equation and is a straight line.

Which describes the path of a gas particle between collisions with other particles?
Straight line
What dose collinear mean?

What is a rectilinear path?
Rectilinear is a fancy way of saying "straight line".
The tendency for objects to continue moving in a straight line is called?
inertia
What is the vertical word?
for example a straight line.(is it straight up and down)
What is a real life example of a straight angle?
it would be 180 A perfectly straight line would be an example - like the edge of a ruler. Or a plumb line.
What is the suprise vertical word?
for example a straight line.(is it straight up and down)
What is a figure that has one straight line?
A semicircle is an example of a figure with one straight line. It is a circle that has been split along the diameter.
Could a intersection line form a right angle?
Yes, for example, you have a straight horizontal line. If you intersect a straight vertical line in the middle of the horizontal line, pointing straight up, you would have two right angles.
Which is longer a straight line or a diagonal line?
The diagonal line of a rectangle for example is greater than its length.
Give an example of straight line motion including its cause and the effect?
example: if u put a small object on a roller coaster ride, it falls out in a straight line... example: if u go on the empire state building and drop a object in would drop to the ground in a straight line all the way down.
Example of perpendicular?
standing on the floor Perpendicular is when a straight line is 90 degree to another line
A speed time graph forms a straight line which is an example of?
If it is a horizontal straight line, it means the object is moving at constant velocity. If it is a sloped line, it means the object is accelerating.
What does a line look like?
a line is a straight, never ending line segement without two points at the end. For example: _________________________ . That is a line.
Examples problem in motion along straight line?
A problem in motion along a straight line is a problem that takes place in one dimension. An example problem is an object on a straight conveyor belt.
Example of an straight line in real life?
The piece of lead in a pencil or the pencil.
