That means, of course, that the velocity (and the speed) doesn't change.
Acceleration is negative.
The speed varies according to the refractive index of the objects.
The speed of light is constant in a vacuum and is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. Light from a star travels at this speed from the star to Earth without acceleration.
It has no acceleration. The definition of acceleration is the change in velocity over time, so if it is traveling at a constant speed, it has no acceleration. Also, the speed of light is a constant, which means it does not change.
The study of velocity, speed, and acceleration is called kinematics. Kinematics is a branch of physics that deals with the motion of objects without considering the forces causing the motion.
If an object travels with constant acceleration, its speed will change at a constant rate over time. The object's speed will increase if the acceleration is positive, decrease if it is negative, and remain constant if the acceleration is zero.
Light does not accelerate as it always travels at a constant speed of 300,000 kilometers per second in a straight line, as per the laws of physics. This is because light does not have mass and therefore does not experience acceleration in the same way that objects with mass do.
Acceleration is negative.
Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time interval)
When acceleration is zero, then the object is moving in a straight line with constant speed. (That's the effective meaning of constant velocity.)
If a car travels in a straight line with a constant speed, then the car has a constant velocity (determined by direction and speed), and the acceleration is 0.
Straight line at a constant speed = no acceleration
The speed varies according to the refractive index of the objects.
In circular motion, the centripetal acceleration points towards the center of the circle and is responsible for maintaining the object's direction. This acceleration does not change the object's speed, but instead changes its direction, keeping it in circular motion.
The acceleration of an object that travels in a constant straight line velocity is zero.
If you have a negative acceleration, you are slowing down. Acceleration is the rate of change of speed, so a negative acceleration means a decrease in speed.
The acceleration of an object moving in a straight line at a constant speed is zero. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so if the speed is constant, there is no change in velocity and thus no acceleration.
