No, retardation refers to a negative acceleration, which means the object is slowing down. A zero acceleration means the object is moving at a constant velocity.

If acceleration is 8 what is value of retardation?

Zero


How is velocity of zero different from an accerlation at zero?

Velocity at zero means the object is not moving, while acceleration at zero means the object is moving at a constant velocity. Velocity at zero can be motionless or stationary, while acceleration at zero indicates that there is no change in velocity, even if the object is moving.


Is retardation positive or negative acceleration?

Retardation or deceleration is negative acceleration. It is opposite to the direction of velocity.


If an object is moving at a constant velocity what do you know about its acceleration?

"Acceleration" means change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero.


What does a retardation factor of zero mean?

A retardation factor of zero means that a chemical contaminant moves at the same rate as the groundwater in a porous medium, with no retardation or delay. This implies that the contaminant is not being adsorbed or slowed down in the subsurface environment.


Meaning of zero acceleration?

Zero acceleration means no change in velocity and no force on the zero accelerating body.


What is acceleration and retardation?

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time, where an object is speeding up. Retardation, also known as deceleration, is the rate at which an object slows down or decreases in velocity over time.


When an object slows it has what acceleration?

Retardation or negative acceleration or deceleration.


What conclusion can you draw about the acceleration is it constant increasing decresing or zero?

If acceleration is constant, it means the velocity is changing at a constant rate. If acceleration is increasing, it means the velocity is increasing at an increasing rate. If acceleration is decreasing, it means the velocity is increasing at a decreasing rate. If the acceleration is zero, it means there is no change in velocity.


How can you find the retardation of a curve in a speed time graph?

Calculate the gradient of the curve which will give the acceleration. Change the sign of the answer to convert acceleration into retardation.


Zero acceleration will the velocity be constant?

Whenever velocity is constant, the acceleration is zero. This also works when the velocity is zero, the acceleration is zero. That pretty much means the object isn't moving. But, yes/ If velocity is constant, accleration is zero.


How is velocity of zero different from an acceleration of zero?

Velocity basically means how fast you are going. Acceleration means how much your speed is increasing. So if there is zero velocity that means the object is not moving. If there is zero acceleration, that means that the speed is not increasing but there is actual speed and the object is not increasing it's speed what ever that may be.
