What else can I help you with?
How can an object slowing down have an acceleration that's not negative?
If the positive direction was defined at the outset as the direction opposite to the direction in which the object happens to be moving just now, and the object is slowing down, then the acceleration is positive because, algebraically, the object's speed is increasing in the positive direction.
If a net force acts at an angle to the direction an object is moving will the object follow a curved path?
Yes, if a net force acts at an angle to the direction an object is moving, the object will follow a curved path. This is because the force will cause the object to accelerate in a direction that is not directly in line with its original velocity, resulting in a change in the object's path.
When you know both the speed and direction of a moving object you know the?
velocity
What effect does a force have on a moving object when the force is not along the objects path?
When a force is applied to a moving object in a direction that is not along the object's path, the force will cause the object to change its direction. This change in direction is due to the force causing acceleration in the object perpendicular to its original motion.
Can a position time graph tell in which directionthe displacement of an object is?
Yes. If the slope is positive, the direction of the displacement is positive (e.g. north, east, or right). If the slope is negative, the direction of the displacement is negative (e.g. south, west, or left).
The speed of a moving object taken together with its direction of travel gives the of the object?
The speed of a moving object taken together with its direction of travel gives the velocity of the object. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction, so it describes how fast an object is moving and in what direction.
The speed of a moving object taken together with its direction of travel gives the what of an object?
The speed of a moving object taken together with its direction of travel gives the velocity of an object. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both the speed and direction of an object in motion.
Speed of an object but in specific direction?
Velocity is the speed of an object in a specific direction. It includes not just how fast an object is moving, but also the direction in which it is moving.
How fast an object moves in the direction it moves?
The speed of an object moving in a specific direction is called its velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that describes both the speed of the object and the direction in which it is moving. Speed only describes how fast an object is moving without specifying the direction.
What is the rate at which an object is moving at a given instant called?
speed if no direction is needed velocity if direction is needed
What is the speed and direction of a moving body called?
The speed and direction of a moving body is called velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that specifies both the speed of an object and the direction in which it is moving.
Which of these determines the speed and directions of a moving object?
The velocity of a moving object is determined by both its speed and direction. Speed refers to how fast an object is moving, while direction indicates the path it is taking. Together, speed and direction make up the velocity of the object.
What is the speed of an object moving on a particular direction?
The speed of an object moving in a particular direction is called the velocity and it's a vector, that is, it has magnitude and direction. Speed is the scalar part of velocity.
How fast an object is moving is called what?
It is called "speed." If the direction is also included, the measurement is "velocity."
What is the direction of velocity in a moving object?
The direction of velocity in a moving object indicates the speed and the direction in which the object is moving. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both magnitude (speed) and direction.
What is any change in the speed or direction of a moving object called?
Any change in the speed or direction of a moving object is called acceleration. It can be caused by applying a force in the direction of motion (speeding up), opposite to the direction of motion (slowing down), or perpendicular to the direction of motion (changing direction).
What is the measurement that combines both the speed and the direction of a moving object called?
well i think its Velocity because it means speed and direction
