What else can I help you with?
What orientation of velocity and acceleration will cause something to initialy slow down?
If the velocity and acceleration are in opposite directions, the object will initially slow down. This occurs when the acceleration is in the direction opposite to the object's motion, creating a deceleration effect.
What does the graph of acceleration vs. time look for something going constant velocity?
a horizontal line
How do you know if something has smaller acceleration?
If something has a smaller acceleration, it means that its velocity is changing at a slower rate over time compared to something with a larger acceleration. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so a smaller acceleration signifies a gentler change in speed or direction.
When is velocity parallel to acceleration?
Velocity is parallel to acceleration when an object is moving with constant speed in a straight line, as the direction of the velocity and acceleration vectors are aligned. This means that the object's speed may be constant, but its direction can change.
When a ball is traveling at a constant velocity of 50 ms and has been traveling for over 2 minutes what is the balls acceleration?
If the ball is traveling at a constant velocity of 50 m/s, then its acceleration is 0 m/s^2. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so if the velocity is constant, there is no change in velocity, and therefore no acceleration.
What orientation of velocity and acceleration will cause something to initialy slow down?
If the velocity and acceleration are in opposite directions, the object will initially slow down. This occurs when the acceleration is in the direction opposite to the object's motion, creating a deceleration effect.
What does the vestibule of the ear detect?
orientation of the head. static position, velocity, acceleration and direction.
How is the initial velocity zero but the acceleration is not?
Going back to definitions, Velocity is change of distance with time; and acceleration is change in velocity with time. Initially, the velocity is zero, as is the acceleration, BUT the Force of Gravity attracts the falling mass, and causes velocity to appear. But the continued application of the Force of Gravity causes the velocity to increase. And as we know, increase in velocity is acceleration. [space for QED]

Can something have both a constant velocity and constant acceleration?
No it cannot. It is either one or the other. For constant velocity, acceleration must be 0, meaning there is no acceleration happening here. If there is constant acceleration, then the velocity is constantly changing.
What is the different between velocity and acceleration?
Velocity . . . what speed and direction something is moving. Acceleration . . . how fast the speed and/or direction of its motion are changing.
When is velocity parallel to acceleration?
Velocity is parallel to acceleration when an object is moving with constant speed in a straight line, as the direction of the velocity and acceleration vectors are aligned. This means that the object's speed may be constant, but its direction can change.

Is there an acceleration when an object traveling at constant velocity and why?
No, there is no acceleration when an object is traveling at a constant velocity. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so if the velocity is constant, there is no change and therefore no acceleration.
What of the he graph of acceleration vs time for something going a constant positive velocity has characteristic?
The acceleration vs. time graph for something moving at a constant positive velocity will be a horizontal line at zero acceleration. This is because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and if the velocity is not changing (constant), then the acceleration is zero.
Can a body have acceleration without velocity?
Yes, a body can have acceleration without velocity. This can occur if the body is changing its direction or speed while its velocity is zero at a particular moment. For example, a car at rest that suddenly accelerates forward experiences acceleration without velocity initially.
