Run around in circles...
An object can accelerate by speeding up (increasing velocity) or by changing direction (experiencing a change in acceleration).
Yes, a body can accelerate without changing its speed if it changes direction but not its speed, such as when moving in a circular path at a constant speed. In this case, the body is still accelerating because its velocity (direction of motion) is changing.
The acceleration of a body is positive when the body is speeding up in the direction of its velocity. This occurs when the force applied to the body is in the same direction as its motion, causing it to accelerate positively.
No. This is because the object is speeding up, therefore more force must be acting on one side than on the other. However, if the object was moving at a constant speed or was stationary, then the forces would be balanced.
Unbalanced forces cause a change in an object's motion by either speeding it up, slowing it down, or changing its direction. The object will accelerate in the direction of the greater force.
Slowing down and Speeding up
An object can accelerate by speeding up (increasing velocity) or by changing direction (experiencing a change in acceleration).
acceleration means to accelerate, which means you gain speed, or speed up. Their synonyms. Its not really much of a question, if you ask me.

_________ refers to speeding without realizing it.
The acceleration of a body is positive when the body is speeding up in the direction of its velocity. This occurs when the force applied to the body is in the same direction as its motion, causing it to accelerate positively.

A car that is speeding up; a car slowing down; anything moving in a circle, such as planets moving around the Sun (orbits are approximately circular).
Unbalanced forces cause a change in an object's motion by either speeding it up, slowing it down, or changing its direction. The object will accelerate in the direction of the greater force.
There are only 3 ways to accelerate: speeding up, slowing down, and changing direction. since 0mph allows you to do none of those three things, it can't be accelerating.
To boost or to speed up!
No, an object cannot accelerate and have a constant speed at the same time. Acceleration is a change in velocity, which includes speed or direction. If an object has a constant speed, it means there is no acceleration occurring.
