If a force is exerted on an object is it possible for that object to be moving with constant velocity?

Velocity is a vector quantity in which both magnitude and direction must be taken into consideration. For an object to have constant velocity, it is necessary that both the magnitude and the direction of the velocity must be constant. Even if either magnitude or direction is variable, velocity will not remain constant. On the other hand, speed remains constant if direction is changed and magnitude is kept constant, as speed is a scalar quantity.
For an object to have constant velocity, it is necessary that the object move at a constant speed and not change course. That object must move in a straight line to have a constant velocity.

∙ 13y agoNo. A body can have constant speed but changing direction thus changing velocity. For example, an orbiting body may have a constant speed s=wr, but its direction is constantly changing as it follows the curve of its orbit.

∙ 15y agoYes, it is constant at zero. I.e. there is no acceleration so velocity must be constant
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoAnswer: yes velocity because velocity is traveling in the same direction at the same speed so yes it is traveling in a straight line
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoA car moving with a constant speed is moving with a constant velocity if and only if it is travelling along a straight line.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThat is possible only if another force acts in the opposite direction, and the total force on the object is zero. This is often the case if there is friction.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoNo. If there is a net force (if the sum of all the forces is not equal to zero), then there will be an acceleration, and the velocity will NOT be constant.
Wiki User
∙ 9y agoAn object moving at a constant speed in a straight line needs a force to act on it to keep it in uniform motion when it is affected by other forces such as wind or frictions.

Moving at constant velocity is also moving with constant speed?
Velocity is Speed in a given direction. Moving at constant velocity is equivalent to say moving with a constant speed in a specified direction. So, moving at constant velocity implicitly means moving with constant speed.
If a car moves at constant speed also moving at constant velocity give an example?
A car moving at constant speed in a straight line is also moving at constant velocity.
What does mean the velocity remains constant?
there is no acceleration if the body is moving with constant velocity
Is it possible to tell the difference between moving at a constant velocity and not moving at all?
No. You can't tell the difference, for one reason: There IS no difference.
Is it possible for a body to have an acceleration when moving with constant velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
An object moving at a constant velocity will?
... continue to do that, until a force is exerted on it.

Is it possible for a body to have acceleration when moving constant speed and constant velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
What are diifferent word for object?
a "body" "moving body" an "object" is moving with constant velocity. [OR] a "body" is moving with constant velocity.
If a car moves at constant speed also moving at constant velocity give an example?
A car moving at constant speed in a straight line is also moving at constant velocity.
Is it possible for a body to have acceleration when moving with constant veloctiy?
No, because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
What does mean the velocity remains constant?
there is no acceleration if the body is moving with constant velocity

No. You can't tell the difference, for one reason: There IS no difference.
Is it possible for a car moving with a constant velocity to have forces acting on it?
No,because if the car is moving at a constant velocity that means the acceleration is zero. So the net force is zero and there may be some forces acting on it. Only gravity, downward.
Is it possible for a body to have an acceleration when moving with constant velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
Is it possible for a body to have acceleration when moving with constant velocity and with constant velocity?
A=dv/dt so hell Nah if that dv/dt bs is 0. Duh. And what's with the second constant velocity bs too? Proofread man. You're better than that.
Can there be a body moving with constant acceleration but zero velocity. With examples?
since accelaration is the change in velocity of an object per unit time......if velocity is zero then there is no acceleration.its nt possible
