What else can I help you with?
What is the rate at which speed or direction changes?
Acceleration
A change in speed or direction?
A change in speed or direction is caused by a force and is called acceleration.
What is a change in speed or direction?
Acceleration
What changes when an unbalanced force acts upon an object?
There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force". When the entire group of forces acting on an object is unbalanced, the object accelerates, in the direction of the vector sum of the forces.
What 2 ways causes an object's velocity to change?
If an object's speed changes, or it heads off in a new direction, its velocity has changed. Because of friction and gravity 1. acceleration 2. deceleration 3. change of direction
When acceleration upward or downward direction is taken positivw or negative?
If it is gravitational acceleration then it it is positive in downward and negative in upward direction..if it is not gravitational acceleration then it is depending upon the value of acceleration.
Angular acceleration is it scalar or vector?
Angular acceleration is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude (rate of change of angular velocity) and direction in rotational motion. The direction of angular acceleration aligns with the axis of rotation it is acting upon.
Can a body have a uniform speed having an acceleration?
Yes a body can have both a uniform speed and an acceleration. This is because speed is a scalar quantity, meaning it does not depend on direction. Acceleration is a vector quantity, meaning it does depend on direction. This means that when you are changing direction you are accelerating in that direction. During this time your speed may remain constant. Think about taking a turn in a car. You can put on enough gas to keep you at 20 mph but you are still changing direction so you are accelerating.
What two factors does acceleration depend on?
Acceleration depends on both the magnitude of the net force acting on an object and the mass of the object. The greater the net force applied or the lower the mass, the greater the acceleration of the object.
Is it possible that acceleration at an instant does not depends upon its velocity at that instant?
Acceleration never depends on the instantaneous velocity.Acceleration is the rate at which velocity is changing, and the direction of the change.A car leaving a STOP sign at a neighborhood intersection, and the Space Shuttle in theprocess of a delicate orbital maneuver to link up with the International Space Station,could very well have the same acceleration.
What two thing does acceleration depend upon?
Acceleration depends on the mass of the object being accelerated and the net force acting on the object.
How can an object travelling in one direction be accelerated in another direction?
An object traveling in one direction can be accelerated in another direction by applying a force in the desired direction. This force will cause the object's velocity to change, leading to acceleration in the new direction. The acceleration will depend on the magnitude and direction of the force applied.
What occurs whenever an object is acted upon by an unbalanced force?
When an object is acted upon by an unbalanced force, it experiences acceleration in the direction of the force. This change in motion can involve speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. The object's velocity and ultimately its position will change as a result of this acceleration.
What is the direction of instantaneous acceleration?
The direction of instantaneous acceleration is in the direction of the change in velocity at that moment. If the velocity is increasing, the acceleration is in the same direction as the velocity. If the velocity is decreasing, the acceleration is in the opposite direction of the velocity.
What is the town you come to out of the Mohave Desert?
That would depend upon which direction you are exiting the Mojave and from what origin.
What effects acceleration?
When an unbalanced force acts upon an object it will accelerate.
How do you work out the deceleration?
Same as acceleration - just remember that "deceleration" is an acceleration in a direction opposite to the direction of movement.Same as acceleration - just remember that "deceleration" is an acceleration in a direction opposite to the direction of movement.Same as acceleration - just remember that "deceleration" is an acceleration in a direction opposite to the direction of movement.Same as acceleration - just remember that "deceleration" is an acceleration in a direction opposite to the direction of movement.
