What else can I help you with?
Is it true that in order for an object to move in uniform circular motion it must not be accelerating?
No, in uniform circular motion, the object is accelerating because its direction is continuously changing, even though its speed remains constant. The object is accelerating toward the center of the circle, experiencing centripetal acceleration.
Why are you still accelerating when you travel in a circle at a constant speed?
When you travel in a circle at a constant speed, your velocity (direction and speed) is constantly changing as you move along the curved path. This change in velocity indicates that there is an acceleration acting on the object, known as centripetal acceleration, which is directed towards the center of the circle. This acceleration is required to keep the object moving in a curved path at a constant speed.
How does applied force change the speed of an object?
Applying a force to an object can change its speed by accelerating it in the direction of the force. The greater the force applied, the greater the acceleration and the faster the object will move. Conversely, if no force is applied, the object will continue at a constant speed or come to a stop if there is friction or other opposing forces.
Can an object move without acceleration?
Yes. An object cannot begin to move without acceleration, but once it's moving, it needs no further acceleration to continue moving.
What will happen to an object moving at a constant speed if the forces acting on it are balanced?
If the forces acting on an object are balanced and the object is moving at a constant speed, the object will continue to move at that constant speed in a straight line. There will be no change in the object's velocity or direction of motion.
How do you identify balanced forces?
The object the forces are acting on will not move, or will be moving at a constant speed (e.g. not accelerating). This is called being in 'equilibrium'.
An object will move at constant speed until?
An object will move at constant speed until acted upon by a force.
Is it true that in order for an object to move in uniform circular motion it must not be accelerating?
No, in uniform circular motion, the object is accelerating because its direction is continuously changing, even though its speed remains constant. The object is accelerating toward the center of the circle, experiencing centripetal acceleration.
Is it correct to assume a motion of constant speed?
It depends on your setting. If the net force on an object is zero than the object will move with a constant speed. It will also move with a constant speed (but not velocity!) if a force forces the object to move in a circular motion.

If An object in uniform circular motion must be changing its speed in order to move in a circular path?
Yes, an object in uniform circular motion is constantly changing its direction, which means it is accelerating towards the center of the circle. This acceleration is necessary to keep the object moving in a circular path at a constant speed.
When an object stops accelerating what happens?
When an object stops accelerating, it either maintains a constant velocity or comes to a complete stop depending on the forces acting upon it. If the net force acting on the object is zero, it will move at a constant velocity. If there is a net force opposing its motion, the object will eventually come to a stop.
What is the average speed of an object moving constant in a circle?
An object can move in a circle at different speeds.
What is constant speed?
Constant speed is movement at a fixed (constant) distance per unit of time. The same amount of distance is covered by the object in the same amount of time at each measurement of that same interval. An example of an object moving at a constant speed might be an object in orbit. Something up their above the drag of the atmosphere will move at a constant speed, and will continuously move around the earth at the same speed. Note that velocity is speed with a direction vector. An object in orbit will have a constant speed, but its velocity will be constantly changing because it is constantly changing the direction it is moving.
