No. The definition of acceleration is change in velocity.

Can a body be in motion but 0 acceleration?

Yes, a body can be in motion but have zero acceleration if it is moving at a constant speed in a straight line. Acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity, so if velocity is constant, acceleration is zero even though the body is in motion.


Can a body have constant speed as well as variable velocity?

No, constant speed implies that the body is moving at a consistent rate, while variable velocity means the direction of motion is changing. It is not possible for a body to have both constant speed and variable velocity simultaneously.


Theory about uniformly accelerated motion?

From a kinematic perspective, just observing the motion of an object, we can say that an object is experiencing uniform acceleration if the magnitude of the object's velocity changes at a constant rate but maintains the same direction. From a dynamic perspective, as a consequence of Newton's second law, we know that whenever the net force on an object is constant (in magnitude and direction) the object will undergo uniform acceleration.


Do balanced forces cause motion?

No. An unbalanced force causes motion, but balanced forces keep a body in motion in a straight line at constant velocity, or at rest at constant 0 velocity.


When a body has uniform velocity?

When a body has uniform velocity, it is moving in a straight line at a constant speed. This means that the magnitude and direction of its velocity remain constant over time. uniform velocity implies no acceleration present in the motion of the body.

Can a body in equilibrium if it is in motion?

It can be in equilibrium if in constant motion (constant velocity) as no forces are acting on it (no acceleration)


Can a body be in motion but 0 acceleration?

Yes, a body can be in motion but have zero acceleration if it is moving at a constant speed in a straight line. Acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity, so if velocity is constant, acceleration is zero even though the body is in motion.


What can you say about the motion of a body if it's velocity-time graph is a straight line inclined with the time-axis?

uniformly accelerated motion


What does Newton's first law?

a body at rest will stay at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force; also a body in motion at constant velocity will stay in motion at constant velocity unless acted on by an unbalanced force

What newton first law of motion?

Newton's first law of motion states that a body at rest remains at rest and a body in motion remains in motion at constant velocity in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

When is velocity is constant?

when the body in motion covers equal displacement in equal intervals of time.


Why is the motion of a particle along a circular path with a uniform speed said to be an accelerated motion?

To accelerate a body one must change its velocity or direction at an instantaneous moment. Since in a the velocity is uniform the direction at every point on the circular path is different. Thus making it accelerated.


What is contants?

motion of a body with constant acceleration, that means it has equal velocity in equal intervals if time.


What is uniform circular motion?

Uniform circular motion describes motion in which an object moves with constant speed along a circular path.In physics, uniform circular motion describes the motion of a body traversing a circular path at constant speed. The distance of the body from the axis of rotation remains constant at all times. Though the body's speed is constant, its velocity is not constant: velocity, a vector quantity, depends on both the body's speed and its direction of travel. This changing velocity indicates the presence of an acceleration; this centripetal acceleration is of constant magnitude and directed at all times towards the axis of rotation. This acceleration is, in turn, produced by a centripetal force which is also constant in magnitude and directed towards the axis of rotation.
