If an object moves with constant acceleration what happens to the velocity?

The velocity increases at a constant rate.


When you press your bicycle's brakeswhat happens to your speedvelocityand acceleration?

your seed,velocity,and acceleration will be slow When you brake, your acceleration increases (!), your velocity decreases (and in this case, there is no difference between velocity and speed). Negative acceleration increases when braking a moving bike.


When tossing a coin upwards what happens to its velocity while ascending what happens to its acceleration?

Its velocity decreases because gravity is pulling on it as it goes up. Its acceleration increases.


If the acceleration of an object is in the same direction as the velocity what happens to the velocity of the object?

a = F/m, where a is acceleration, F is net force, and m is mass in kilograms.


When velocity is zero and acceleration is negative what happens to the object in motion?

It accelerates in the opposite direction. Its velocity increases in the opposite direction to the direction that has been assigned positive.


What happens to the mass of an object what happens to the acceleration?

If the mass of an object increases, what happens to the acceleration?


What happens to the velocity if acceleration is zero?

The velocity stays the same, it is constant


What happens when centripetal acceleration occurs?

The body which is subjected to centripetal acceleration undergoes uniform circular motion.


What happens to the acceleration when the total mass increases but unbalanced force remain constant?

Acceleration increases


Acceleration is the rate at which happens?

acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.


What happens to the velocity of gas when temperature increase?

As temperature increases, so does molecular velocity, which also means volume increases.


What happens to the force of an object if the object increases?

The acceleration increases.
