What else can I help you with?
An objects resistance to change in motion?
Inertia. Inertia applies to both increases and decreases in velocity.
Rate of change of the velocity of an object?
The change in velocity is just the change in velocity. The RATE of change of velocity - how quickly velocity changes - is usually called "acceleration".
What is a measure of how far an objects has moved from a starting point?
A change in the position of an object is called a displacement. Velocity is the measure of the rate of change of displacement with respect to time.
The rate at which an object changes position is called what?
A change in position in a certain amount of time is called motion.
What is the scientific name for a change in velocity?
Acceleration is the scientific term for change in velocity.
What causes objects to change their velocity?
A force, or several forces that don't add up to zero, acting on the object.
What causes the change in velocity?
A change in velocity can be caused by forces acting on an object. These forces can be due to interactions with other objects, such as a push or a pull, or due to internal processes like propulsion systems. Changes in velocity can also occur due to changes in direction, such as when an object turns.
Is velocity a change in an objects motion?
Velocity is a change in an object's motion OR direction of motion.
What control causes a change in volocity?
A resultant force causes a change in velocity.
The change in an object velocity?
The change in an object's velocity is determined by its acceleration. If the object's acceleration is positive, its velocity increases; if it is negative, the velocity decreases. The larger the acceleration, the quicker the change in velocity will be.
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.
A change in a objects velocity is called?
either resistance or inertia
What would you apply in order to change an objects velocity?
force
Forces that cause an objects velocity to change?
In all cases acceleration.
What is the term for motion in which the velocity of the moving objects does not change?
uniform motion
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)
Describe a situation in which gravity causes a change in velocity why does a change in velocity happen?
When an object is dropped from a height, gravity causes it to accelerate towards the ground. This acceleration leads to a change in velocity as the object's speed increases. The change in velocity occurs because gravity exerts a force on the object, pulling it towards the Earth.
