Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. If an object increases its speed from, say, 10 ft/s to 60 ft/s in five seconds, its acceleration is 10 feet per second per second, or 10 feet per second squared (ft/s2).
How did we arrive at that figure? Divide the change in velocity by the change in time. The change in velocity is 60 - 10 = 50 ft/s. The change in time is 5 - 0 = 5 s. Hence, 50/5 = 10 ft/s2.
What else can I help you with?
Is there an acceleration when an object traveling at constant velocity and why?
No, there is no acceleration when an object is traveling at a constant velocity. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so if the velocity is constant, there is no change and therefore no acceleration.
What happens to a velocity when the acceleration changes?
If the acceleration changes, the velocity of an object will also change. If the acceleration increases, the velocity will increase. If the acceleration decreases, the velocity will decrease. The velocity and acceleration of an object are directly related.
Are velocity and acceleration related?
Yes. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
Is it possible for a body to have acceleration when moving constant speed and constant velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
When traveling at a constant velocity the acceleration is?
When traveling at a constant velocity, the acceleration is zero. This is because acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity, and if velocity is not changing, there is no acceleration.
If an object is moving at a constant velocity what do you know about its acceleration?
"Acceleration" means change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero.
Is it possible for a body to have an acceleration when moving with constant velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
When a body has constnat velocity what is the acceleration?
When a body has constant velocity, the acceleration is zero. This is because acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes, so if velocity is constant, there is no change and hence no acceleration.
When a body has velocity no constant has acceleration or no?
Yes. If a body has a constant velocity there is no acceleration, but if the velocity is changing there is acceleration present.
What is the acceleration of vehicle moving with uniform velocity?
The acceleration of a vehicle moving with uniform velocity is zero. This is because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and if the velocity is constant and not changing, then the acceleration is zero.
What is your acceleration if you have a constant velocity?
If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.
Does velocity differ from acceleration?
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
