Best Answer

In the frame of reference in which the object is stationary, its speed is zero.

(Actually, that's kind of a definition of "stationary".)

What are the speed of stationary object?

Nothing


What are stationary objects?

Stationary object refers to an object that is not moving


Can a object with no acceleration be stationary?

If acceleration means to increase in speed or pace, then a stationary object is static, without movement, without acceleration. But, if an object is moving at a constant rate, then I suggest acceleration is not present, unless, or until the objects speed increases. Yes, an object with no acceleration may be stationary.


Can you tell from a velocity-time graph whether an object is stationary?

If the curve is horizontal, then the speed is constant. If that horizontal graph lies on the x-axis, then the constant speed is zero, and the object is stationary.


If the net force on an object is zero then the object is?

Not accelerating. It could be stationary or moving at a constant speed.


It it possible for an object to be sationary while under acceleration?

"Stationary" means zero speed. The object's speed is not changing, and the direction of the speed is obviously also not changing.By definition then, acceleration is zero.


Stationary objects are the result of?

0 velocity 0 acceleration The forces on the object are balanced: it is in equilibrium. (The forces are balanced on any object with 0 acceleration, even if it is moving.)


When is an object in motion?

When its position changes with respect to a point of reference.


Does a vertical line on a distance time graph indicate that an object is stationary?

Object will change distance time graph when speed is changing. Distance time graph don't changed indicate of the stationary.


What is movement of a stationary object?

-- acceleration = 0 -- velocity (speed and direction) exactly equal to the observer's velocity


When an object is moving in relation to a stationary object is the stationary object called the reference point?
