What else can I help you with?
Can an object have zero velocity and nonzero acceleration?
Yes, an object can have zero velocity and nonzero acceleration. This occurs when the object is changing its direction but not its speed. For example, in circular motion, the object's velocity is constantly changing direction, leading to a nonzero acceleration even when its speed is constant.
Can the average velocity of a particle be zero but not its average speed?
Yes, since velocity is speed and direction its average can be zero. For example say a plane flies from point A to point B at 300 mph and turns around to go from B to A at 300 mph; its average velocity is 0 since it is in the same spot as it started ( the velocity vectors cancel) but its average speed is 300 mph.
What is an example of constant speed with changing velocity?
Velocity is a vector, thus it has a direction. Therefore, you can change the velocity by changing direction. A great example of this is a ball on a string spinning at a constant speed, but it is continually changing direction, therefore, even though the speed is constant the velocity changes at every instant.
When is speed equal to the magnitude of velocity?
Speed is equal to the magnitude of velocity when the object is moving in a straight line without changing direction. In other words, if the velocity vector is pointing in the same direction as the motion of the object, then the speed will be equal to the magnitude of the velocity.
Is the average speed equal to the magnitude of the average velocity justify your answer?
Yes usually and no rarely, velocity is defined as a vector, having both a direction and a magnitude (which is speed in the case of velocity). For instance 100 mph (speed) east (0o) (direction). In this form it is easy to see that the magnitude is 100 mph but mathematically to determine the magnitude of a vector you would divide the vector by its direction. 100 mph 0o / 0o = 100 mph Average speed and average velocity share the same relationship as instantaneous speed and instantaneous velocity so divide out the average direction from your average velocity to determine your average speed. If this is over a time period and you know the beginning and ending places in space your averages will simply be the difference from the starting to the ending places. So yes so long as you define speed to actually be the magnitude of the vector. However, if speed is taken without direction over time it may become something different. If an object travels along a vector with a negative magnitude its speed will not be negative but its vector magnitude will. Ex: A car travelling in reverse still has a positive speed but a compass will show it to be heading in the opposite direction of travel, a negative vector value...
Can an object have zero velocity and nonzero acceleration?
Yes, an object can have zero velocity and nonzero acceleration. This occurs when the object is changing its direction but not its speed. For example, in circular motion, the object's velocity is constantly changing direction, leading to a nonzero acceleration even when its speed is constant.
Can object have zero acceleration and nonzero velocity at the same time.give example?
Yes, an object moving at a constant velocity has zero acceleration even though it has a non-zero velocity. For example, a car driving at a steady speed on a straight highway has a constant velocity but zero acceleration.
Is it possible that a body has zero speed and nonzero velocity?
No because velocity defined as speed in a given direction so if speed is 0 then velocity must also be 0
Can you have zero displacement and nonzero velocity?
i will give u an illustration, consider an object projected (thrown)with some initial vertical velocity from the ground such that it traces a open downward parabolicpath, in that path the vertical displacement of the body from the point of projection to the point where it strikes the ground is equal to zero,but it have some velocity.
When average velocity and average speed is equal?
For the instantaneous value of average velocity, average speed and average velocity are equal.
How is velocity different from average speeed?
Velocity is speed and its direction. Average velocity is average speed and its direction.
Does average velocity and average speed have the same number?
velocity is a vector and speed is scalar. Velocity has magnitude and directions, with magnitude being speed. The magnitude of average velocity and average speed is the same.
Can average speed of a moving object be zerogive an example?
No, it can't. Average VELOCITY can be zero, though.
What is the velocity?
Velocity is a speed with a direction (e.g. 20 miles per hour North). your example is an average velocity. velocity is displacement over elapsed time. it is speed. i know this and im only 11
When is average speed of an object not equal to average velocity?
Average speed is the distance traveled divided by the time taken, and it is a scalar quantity. Average velocity is the displacement divided by the time taken, and it is a vector quantity that includes direction. Average speed and average velocity are only equal when an object moves in a straight line, but when there are changes in direction, they can be different.
An object has 0 vilocity but it cant have 0 average speed justify?
The correct term is velocity, not velocity.There is no reason why an object cannot have 0 velocity and 0 average speed - relative to some fixed reference point. I assume that your school, for example, has 0 velocity and 0 average speed.
Can the average velocity of a particle be zero but not its average speed?
Yes, since velocity is speed and direction its average can be zero. For example say a plane flies from point A to point B at 300 mph and turns around to go from B to A at 300 mph; its average velocity is 0 since it is in the same spot as it started ( the velocity vectors cancel) but its average speed is 300 mph.
