Acceleration, the change of velocity, occurs. DO NOT EVER CALL IT DECELERATION. That term is for the archetypal caudex ( it's latin, look it up)...

Hence, acceleration includes both the increase AND decrease in the rate of change in velocity...and there you have it.

When an objects speed changes its velocity also changes?

Verily, that statement ringeth with veracity and truth.


What resist change in velocity?

Objects with greater mass resist changes in velocity more than light objects. Additionally, objects with higher inertia or momentum also resist changes in velocity. Friction and air resistance can also act to resist changes in velocity.


When an object's speed changes does it's velocity also change?

yes, speed is velocity with a direction


When an object's speed change does its velocity change?

Since speed is the magnitude component of the vector quantity of velocity, of course when speed changes velocity also changes. Speed is a one dimensional scalar quantity. Velocity is a three dimensional vector quantity describing both speed and direction of motion.


Is a change in speed a change in velocity?

Yes, a change in speed can also be a change in velocity if the direction of the object's motion also changes. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction, so any change in speed or direction will result in a change in velocity.


When speed changes does its velocity change?

When the object is acted upon by an outside force.


Does momentum change if Speed changes?

Yes, momentum changes when speed changes because momentum is directly proportional to an object's velocity. When an object's speed changes, its momentum will also change accordingly.


What is the difference between a objects speed and an objects velocity?

Speed is a scalar quantity that describes how fast an object is moving regardless of its direction, while velocity is a vector quantity that describes both the speed and direction of an object's motion. Speed is expressed as a magnitude only, whereas velocity includes both magnitude and direction.


How fast an objects position changes over any giving moment?

Speed.If you also know what direction it changes, then you have velocity.


Can an object have constant speed and varying velocity at the same time?

No, an object cannot have constant speed and varying velocity at the same time. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction. If velocity is varying, then speed must also be changing as the object's direction changes.


If the speed of a body remaining same discuss wheather its velocity can change?

Yes; if the direction changes (for instance, if an object moves in a circle), even if its speed doesn't change, its velocity changes. This is because the term "velocity" also includes the direction.


What is speed also known as?

Speed is also known as velocity, which refers to the rate at which an object changes its position in a specific direction. It is a vector quantity that includes both magnitude and direction.
