Velocity can be changed by applying a force in the direction of motion. An increase in force will result in an increase in velocity, while a decrease in force will cause velocity to decrease. Another way to change velocity is by changing the direction of motion, which can be achieved by applying a force perpendicular to the current motion.

What is an examples motion?

Initial velocity = m/s, Final velocity =m/s Distance traveled x = mIn this example, the items labeled on the diagram are considered primary: if one of them is changed, the others remain the same. The data in the boxes may be changed, and the calculation will be done when you click outside the box, subject to the constraints described. If the average velocity is directly changed, the final velocity is adjusted for consistency. If the acceleration or time is changed, then the distance is allowed to change.Distance x = m Initial velocity v0 = m/s Final velocity v = m/s Average velocity = m/s Acceleration a = m/s^2 Time t = s


If the momentum of an object changes and its mass stays the same what happens?

If the momentum of an object changes while its mass remains constant, then its velocity must have changed accordingly. This relationship is described by the equation momentum = mass x velocity. So, if momentum changes without a change in mass, then velocity must have changed.


Can the velocity of a body be constant still varying its speed?

Yes. Velocity is rate (or speed) in a given direction. If you change your direction but not your rate (or speed) then you have changed your velocity without changing speed.


Can the speed of a body change if its velocity is changed?

Simly stated, velocity is speed in a defined direction. If you travel 5mph north, the speed is the same as if you travel 5mph east, but the velocity is different.

What are the 3 things that can change velocity?

There is basically only ONE thing that can make a velocity change, and that is a force acting on an object.


What quantity has changed velocity or speed for a car that travels north at 88 kmh and then turns east while continuing to move at 88 kmh?

The speed of the car has not changed. What has changed is the direction of travel. Velocity is a combination of speed and direction, so has changed. Newton's laws say that a body will continue to travel at its starting velocity unless acted on by an external force. There are two forces working here. 1 a force reducing the northward speed of 88 km/h to zero, and 2 a force accelerating the car eastward up to 88 km/h.


What is instanteous velocity?

It is the exact velocity of an object at any point of its path. Remember that VELOCITY also has a direction component to it. Therefore at a constant SPEED an object following a curved path has a constantly changing Velocity. In other words the Vector that represents its Velocity has a changed value at every point.
