If a car is accelerating downhill under the net force of 3674n what additional force would cause the car to have a constant velocity?

An additional force of 3674N in the opposite direction, making the net force 0N, would provide constant acceleration. Since a = F/m, if F = 0 then a = 0, and constant velocity is when a = 0.

∙ 6y agoNewton 2nd Law is Force = mass x acceleration . A force of 3674 N would have to be applied in the opposite direction so no net force is acting and hence no acceleration only constant velocity, Newton1st law states that object will stay at rest or if in motion with velocity with no net force applied.

Why is it easier to determine the coefficient of kinetic friction if the object moves with a constant velocity?
if moving with constant velocity the only force to slow it down is kinetic friction; if it is accelerating velocity is not constant and an additional force is being applied.
Are you accelerating if you are traveling in a constant direction with constant speed and explain?
If you are traveling at a constant speed with changing direction there is a change in velocity, so you are accelerating.
Can an object traveling at constant velocity have acceleration?
No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
How is it possible to be accelerating at a constant speed?
Since acceleration involves a change in velocity, and object might be accelerating even though its speed is constant.
Can an object be accelerating if it has constant velocity?
No. The definition of acceleration is the change in an object's velocity over time. Acceleration must then be zero since velocity remains constant.

No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
Can an object be accelerating if it has a constant velocity?
No. The definition of 'acceleratiion' is 'any change in velocity'.
What is zero accelaration?
When an object is not accelerating at all. It has constant velocity.
If an object is accelerating can its velocity be constant?
No. Acceleration is any change of velocity.But its speed can be constant.
How is it possible to be accelerating at a constant speed?
Since acceleration involves a change in velocity, and object might be accelerating even though its speed is constant.
Can an object be accelerating with constant velocity?
No, since acceleration is defined as a change in velocity. If there is no change, there is no acceleration.
Can an object be accelerating if it has constant velocity?
No. The definition of acceleration is the change in an object's velocity over time. Acceleration must then be zero since velocity remains constant.
What would you call it when air resistance the force of gravity and a falling object stops accelerating?
When a falling object stops accelerating but is falling at a constant velocity, it is called terminal velocity.
An object cannot be accelerating if it has a constant speedtrue or false?
An object with a constant (vector)velocity is not accelerating. An object with a constand (scalar)speed can actually be accelerating, a car with a constant speed that passes around a corner is changing direction and is subjected to a lateral acceleration.
Can a particle with constant speed be accelerating what if it has constant velocity?
Velocity is speed together with its direction.Acceleration indicates a change in velocity ... speed or direction or both.Change of direction means acceleration, even if speed is constant.Constant velocity means constant speed and direction ... zero acceleration.
