# A car is traveling at a constant velocity with magnitude . At the instant that the car passes a motor cycle officer, the motor cycle accelerates from rest with acceleration . # ## Sketch an graph of the motion of both objects. Show that when the motor cycle overtakes the car, the motorcycle has a speed twice that of the car, no matter what the value of . ## Let be the distance the motorcycle travels before catching up with the car. In terms of , how far has the motorcycle traveled when its velocity equals the velocity of the car?
If an object is traveling at a constant velocity, its acceleration is 0. Even if it traveled for 2 years.
zero - it is constat velocity. so acceleration is zero50 m/s2 Another : The acceleration is ZERO. Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity per unit time. If the ball is traveling a constant velocity over a two minute period, the acceleration would be zero since there is no change in velocity.
Then you can say that the object's speed and the magnitude of its velocity are constant, and the magnitude of its acceleration is zero.
Its average acceleration is (40-8)/(8) = 32/8 = 4 m/s2
If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.
An object in uniform circular motion undergoes constant acceleration but moves at constant "speed".Constant "velocity" means no acceleration.
No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
It has no acceleration. The definition of acceleration is the change in velocity over time, so if it is traveling at a constant speed, it has no acceleration. Also, the speed of light is a constant, which means it does not change.
It is constant in magnitude. It is changing in direction.
When something is traveling at a constant velocity it has no acceleration. In other words your answer is 0.
If your acceleration is zero, then yes, you are traveling at a constant speed. The path does not matter. Acceleration measures the change in velocity, so an acceleration of zero means that there is zero change in velocity and therefore the speed is constant.
If an object is traveling at a constant velocity, its acceleration is 0. Even if it traveled for 2 years.
If a velocity or speed is constant there isn't an acceleration. This is because the acceleration is the change in speed or velocity and if it's constant then there sn't a change.
No. Acceleration is change of velocity / time. If there is no change in velocity, there is no acceleration.
A constant speed means that the horse is neither accelerating nor decelearating Speed is a scalar which means it has a magnitude but no direction, while acceleration is a vector so it has both a magnitude and a direction. As the magnitude of the speed remains constant, the speed is constant but since the direction the horse travels in changes that horse is in fact accelerating.
Velocity is a constant traveling speed. Acceleration is increasing traveling speed (variation of speed over time)
Well, technically yes, and we even know the magnitude of the constant acceleration.If velocity is constant, that tells you that acceleration is zero, which sounds likea constant to us.
