Yes it can. Especially if it's riding the periphery of a roulette wheel, glued to the
rim of a car's tire, or spinning around your head on the end of a yo-yo string.
Velocity consists of speed and direction. If the direction of motion is changing
then the velocity is changing, even if the speed is constant.
What else can I help you with?
The difference in speed and velocity is that a measure of velocity must include?
Velocity differs from speed in that velocity includes the direction of movement in addition to the magnitude of speed. Therefore, velocity is a vector quantity that specifies both speed and direction, while speed is a scalar quantity that only represents the magnitude of motion.
What is a situation where instantaneous velocity is the same as average velocity?
A dog running in a circle, stopping where it started, would have a net displacement of zero, an average velocity of zero, and an average acceleration of zero regardless of the time involved. This is because the dog has exerted equal work in moving toward his starting point as moving away from that point. A similar situation exists where a book is lifted from a desk and then dropped back : the book has the same potential energy as before it was lifted, the additional energy having been removed by the force of gravity.
How will the velocity of the book change as it moves across a surface with no friction?
The velocity of the book will remain constant as it moves across a surface with no friction.
A book of mass m falls freely from rest to the floor from the top of a desk of height h. what is the speed of the book upon striking the floor?
The speed of the book upon striking the floor can be found using the equation for the final velocity of an object in free fall: v = sqrt(2gh), where g is the acceleration due to gravity.
Equal and opposite forces that do not produce an acceleration?
Equal and opposite forces that do not produce an acceleration are called balanced forces. When these forces act on an object, the net force is zero, causing the object to remain at rest or to move at a constant velocity without changing its speed or direction.
A science book is being pushed across a table Can the book have a constant speed and a changing velocity?
It can have a constant speed, and a changing velocity, but it cannot have the two at the same time. Remember: Velocity = speed with a directional component.
What includes velocity?
Velocity includes speed and direction. Source- Glencoe book -Ashaparekh44

Is it possible for a book moving at a constant speed to have a change in velocity?
Yes, if an unbalanced force acts on the book, such as friction, which will slow the book down and eventually cause it to stop.
Is a book at rest on a table with gravity pulling down an example of acceleration?
Acceleration is zero in this case. Acceleration means the velocity is actually changing.
What does a venn diagram look like for velocity acceleration average speed speed inertia momentum?
Look it up on Google! This website is not an answer book. People are so lazy... So are you...it is called Answers.com right?!??!

How would the velocity of the book change if the applied force were equal to the sliding friction force?
If the applied force were equal to the sliding friction force, the book would move at a constant velocity since the two forces would be balanced. This means there would be no acceleration or deceleration, and the book's velocity would remain unchanged as long as the forces stayed in equilibrium.
How will the velocity of the book change as it moves across the surface with friction?
The velocity of the book will decrease as it moves across the surface with friction. Friction acts in the opposite direction of motion, slowing down the book.
