Speed of...?

It depends on the context.

Natural constant speeds include those of light (and all electromagnetic radiation) in vacuo; also that of electricity along a conductor.

The average speeds of sound in air and water are taken as constants in acoustics.

You may also need specific constant speeds of say, an electric motor or generator.

It is used when you don't accelerate or decelerate.

Can you use average speed to calculate the speed of an object that is moving at a constant speed?

Yes. If an object is moving at a constant speed the average speed and the constant speed are the same.


Why use constants?

Constant is the speed of light and as the speed of light cannot change it is 'constant'

What is the different between constant velocity and constant speed?

constant velocity is when you maintain speed and direction, this usually is in a straight line, and constant speed means that your speed is always constant at all times.


Why constant is used?

Constant is the speed of light and as the speed of light cannot change it is 'constant'


Can an object have constant velocity and but variable speed?

No. Velocity has two parts, speed and direction A constant velocity means that both the speed and the direction must be constant. So a constant velocity must have a constant speed.


What is non-constant speed?

non-constant speed is when the speed for an object does not stay the same

If the speed of an object does not changed then the object is traveling at a?

If speed does not change then the object is moving with constant speed. when object moves in a circle its speed does not remains constant. Speed of object remains constant only if it moves along linear path.


Compare the tension of a train with constant speed and acceleration?

Unless the train is in a curve, you cannot have constant speed and constant acceleration. You either have constant speed and zero acceleration, or you have changing speed and constant acceleration. Please restate the question.
