No. Any journey will inevitably have a start point and end point. Therefore there must be a phase of acceleration and deceleration. A constant velocity can be achieved between these two phases.

How does mass affect velocity?

When mass increases, velocity remains constant if the force applied remains constant. However, if the applied force stays the same, an increase in mass will require more force to achieve the same acceleration, which may lead to a decrease in velocity.


What are the conditions to achieve balance force?

To achieve balanced forces on an object, the magnitudes and directions of the forces acting on the object must be equal and opposite. This equilibrium state will result in the object either remaining at rest or moving at a constant velocity.


When does a skydiver achieve termianl velocity?

A skydiver typically achieves terminal velocity within 10-15 seconds after jumping out of the plane. Terminal velocity is reached when the force of air resistance pushing up on the falling object equals the force of gravity pulling it down, resulting in a constant falling speed.


What is A change in velocity divided by the time required to achieve change?

Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the time required to achieve that change. It measures how quickly velocity is changing over time.


When there exists an electric field in a conductor why do electrons move with constant velocity but not with an acceleration?

Yes some delicate situation. Here we have to take a lot of information into consideration. Actually electrons move at random direction and in the absence of an electric field the net velocity of the electrons will be zero. Hence we can assume the initial velocity to be zero. Now as an electric field is applied then a force of eE is acting on the electron opposite to the field direction. Due to this electrons get accelerated. No doubt about it. But this acceleration is in effect only for a duartion known as relaxation time. Hence the speed picked up will be acceleration x relaxation time. So this velocity attained in that duration is called as Drift velocity. Vd = (eE / m )* t. Here m is mass of electron. Hence a constant velocity Vd

Is it possible to achieve a constant acceleration?

Yes - for a while. Or indefinitely, if you will accept zero acceleration as "constant acceleration".


How you use achieve in a sentence?

We will soon achieve maximum velocity.

What is a sentence with velocity?

Reduce your velocity or pay a one dollar fine.

What is the difference between increasing velocity and uniform velocity?

Increasing velocity means that the body is accelerating and a force is acting on the body to produce the acceleration. Uniform velocity means that there is no acceleration or deceleration and so no force acts on the body. (Note that in practice we cannot achieve perpetual motion because of either the decelerating force of gravity or friction).


Is orbital velocity the velocity a rocket must reach to fly off into space?

No.Orbital Velocity is the velocity required by a body to achieve a circular orbit around its primary.Escape velocity is the minimum velocity needed to escape a gravitational field


How does an object achieve terminal velocity?

99% of the object cause terminal velocity is determined from an object when it is going as fast as it will go


To find acceleration you subtract what?

To find acceleration, you subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and then divide by the time taken to achieve the change in velocity. The formula for acceleration is (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.
