0. "Constant speed" means it is not accelerating.

How can acceleration occur when a car is traveling at a constant speed?
first, you take your right or left foot and gently apply pressure to the gas pedal
How far will a car travel in 2 hrs if traveling at 75 km an hour?
A car travelling at a constant speed of 75km/h for 2 hours will travel a distance of 150km.
Traveling down a highway a car changed velocity while its speed remained constant.what would have caused this to happen?
This may have been the result of steering the car around a curve in the road while maintaining constant speed.
For a car moving around a circular track at a constant speed the acceleration is?
constant speed=0 acceleration Acceleration is the change in speed. If the speed doesn't change(ie constant) the acceleration is zero.
What is the speed of a car in feet that is traveling at 60 miles an hour?
You have already stated its speed in the question !
Which object has a constant speed?
a car traveling the speed limit
Will Car B overtake Car A if Car A Is Traveling in a straight line at a constant speed of 60 Mph and Car B Is 20 Feet behind Car A traveling at a constant speed of 60 Mph?
Only if car A runs out of gas first.
What is the acceleration of car that travels in a straight line at constant speed?
Straight line at a constant speed = no acceleration
Why does a car traveling at constant speed can accelerate while a car at constant velocity connot?
The question is inherantly flawed. A car traveling at a constant speed cannot accelerate, if it could it's speed would not be constant. "Constant speed" means that speed is not increasing or decreasing but remain consistent over time. For example, if you cover 10 feet during each second, your speed is constant. "Constant velocity" implies constant speed, but it has an additional constraint: you can't change your direction. If you travel constantly at 10 feet per second in a straight line, then your speed is constant and your velocity is constant. But if you travel constantly at 10 feet per second in a wiggly line (or a circle, or anything not straight), then your speed is constant but your velocity is NOT constant. If you travel at a constant speed but change direction, velocity is changed. Or if you travel in the same direction but change the speed, velocity is changed. Average speed is is easier: distance/time So, your question should read: Why can a car traveling at an average speed accelerate, but a car traveling at constant speed cannot? Or Why am I asking the wrong questions?
If a car is traveling in a straight line at a constant speed is it accelerating?
No. 'Acceleration' means a change in speed or direction over time. If the car is moving at a constant speed in a constant direction, then it isn't accelerating.
Does a car traveling along a curved path at constant speed have a constant momentum?
No, the magnitude will be constant, but the direction of the momentum will change to reflect the direction of the velocity.
Does a car traveling 20 mph on a curved exit ramp have a constant velocity?
No it does not because once you change direction you do not have a constant speed.
If a car is traveling at the same speed for a long time it is said to be traveling at?
The answer is that u r travelling with an average speed for that time or a constant speed . it also means that u are travelling with a uniform velocity.
Is a car on a circular track has also constant velocity?
Yes, IF it maintains constant speed on the track. The academic definition of velocity is speed and the associated direction, a vector. A car traveling in a circle is constantly changing direction. However, most people, including physicists when they are not writing textbooks, treat velocity and speed as interchangable such that a car going a constant speed on a circular track would be considered to have a constant velocity even though the direction in which it is traveling is constantly changing.
What do you mean when we talk about a constant speed?
No. Circular motion can have constant speed but varying velocity. Constant speed means constant speed in any direction, like a car on cruise control turning a corner. Constant velocity means constant speed in a straight line. If the direction changes, that's considered a change in velocity.
Does a car traveling the logest time always travels the gratest distance?
Not necessarily. The distance a car travels is determined by its speed and the time it spends traveling. If a car is traveling at a slower speed but for a longer period of time, it may not cover as much distance as a car traveling at a faster speed but for a shorter period of time. So, the longest time does not always correspond to the greatest distance traveled.
What is constant speed Give an example?
if an object is moving without any net force or acceleration, it is moving at constant speed, or constant velocity. For example a satellite orbiting the earth is moving at constant speed, a car traveling at 60 mph, a wind of 20 mph. etc.
