What is the Acceleration of a charged particle of charge q and mass m moving in a uniform electric field of strength E?

The acceleration of a charged particle in a uniform electric field is given by the equation a = qE/m, where q is the charge of the particle, E is the strength of the electric field, and m is the mass of the particle. This acceleration is constant and directed in the direction of the electric field.


Consider a particle moving with constant speed such that its acceleration of constant magnitude is always perpendicular to its velocity?

Centripetal force is a force that makes a body follow a curved path: it is always directed orthogonal to the velocity of the body, toward the instantaneous center of curvature of the path. - See more at: http://www.chacha.com/question/what-is-the-path-of-a-moving-body-whose-acceleration-is-constant-in-magnitude-at-all-times-and-is-perpendicular-to-the-velocity#sthash.pqrkWxfT.dpuf


Can a body moving with constant speed has acceleration?

Yes. Eg : in case of a uniform circular motion. In general, for every motion in which direction of motion of particle keeps changing continuously and the particle moves with same speed, then the net acceleration is non-zero, although tangential acceleration is zero.


What is the acceleration of vehicle moving with uniform velocity?

The acceleration of a vehicle moving with uniform velocity is zero. This is because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and if the velocity is constant and not changing, then the acceleration is zero.


Can it be possible that a particle have constant speed must have zero acceleration?

It's possible, but not necessary, that a particle moving with constant speedhas zero acceleration. In order for acceleration to be zero, it's also necessarythat the particle be moving in a straight line.An object moving with constant speed around a curve has acceleration."Acceleration" does not mean "speeding up".

If a body is moving with a uniform velocity.what will be its acceleration?

If a body is moving with a uniform velocity, its acceleration will be zero. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so if the velocity is constant, there is no change in velocity over time and thus zero acceleration.


Does a particle moving in a straight line have acceleration?

A particle moving in a straight line may or may not have acceleration. Acceleration is adifferent phenomenon altogether. the rate of change of velocity is acceleration, a particle can move in a straight line with a constant velocity thus having no acceleration & it can also move with increasing or decreasing velocities thereby accelerating or deaccelerating.


Is the statement 'a body moving with uniform speed along a circular path is subjected to uniform acceleration' true or false justify?

This statement is true. This type of movement is called Uniform Circular Motion. For every circular motion at constant speed, there is a constant radial acceleration (always pointing towards the center of the circle) named centripetal acceleration. This constant acceleration ensures that at every moment during the motion the orientation of the velocity is changed so that the object stays in a circular path.


What will be acceleration of a car moving in a circular motion with constant speed.?

If body is moving in a circle with uniform or constant speed its acceleration will be uniform as velocity i.e. to say direction is changing at every point.


Does a body moving with uniform acceleration have momentum?

Yes, a body moving with uniform acceleration has momentum. Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity, and acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. As long as the object is moving and has mass, it will have momentum.


What is difference between an object moving with uniform acceleration and an object moving with a constant velocity?

A motion with a constant speed will always be moving the same speed A motion with a constant acceleration will constantly be gaining speed, and does not remain moving at the same speed.
