For example, a pendulum, or anything that moves in a circle or elipse, such as a planet moving around the Sun.

In what three ways can accelerationchange an object's motion?

Acceleration is the change in velocity and/or direction of an object. Acceleration can either speed an object up, slow it down (deceleration), or change the direction in which the object is moving.


Why is an object traveling in a circular motion?

acceleration is change in velocity.. and velocity constantly changes in circular motion, as the direction constantly changes. This constant change in velocity causes the object to accelerate.


How do you make things change direction?

turn them around :)


What are the 3 things forces can do when acting on an object?

When do things experience acceleration?

Things experience acceleration when there is a change in their speed or direction.


According to the text what happens to a point that constantly varies in direction?

A point that constantly varies in direction moves along a curved path or trajectory rather than a straight line. This continuous change in direction can be described using concepts from calculus and differential geometry.


An object traveling in a circle is accelerating because it is constantly changing?

An object traveling in circular motion is constantly changing because its 'direction' is constantly changing due to the circular motion. The speed may be unchanging say, 5 miles per hour but the direction may be going form East to North to West to South and then back to East, say in counter clockwise motion.


What two things can change in velocity do?

Two things that can change in velocity are speed and direction. Speed refers to the rate at which an object is moving, while direction indicates the path along which the object is moving. Both speed and direction can change independently to result in a change in velocity.


Why does light change direction when it hits things?

Light changes direction when it hits a shiny surface


What three things can forces change?

Forces can change the speed, direction, and shape of an object.


What are two important things gears do?

Where For an object moving in a circular path which quantity is always changing?

The velocity of the object is constantly changing in direction as it moves around the circle. This change in direction indicates a change in velocity, even if the speed remains constant.
