If a ferris wheel is rotating at constant speed is it moving at a constant velocity?

No. Velocity combines speed and the direction of motion.
Constant velocity is constant speed in a straight line.
In circular motion, the velocity is always changing even if the speed is constant,
because the direction is always changing.

What would the acceleration of a turtle that is moving with a constant velocity of 0.25 miles per second to the right?
The acceleration would be zero because the turtle is moving at a constant speed
An object moving at a constant velocity will?
... continue to do that, until a force is exerted on it.
What does constant velocity mean?
It means moving at a constant speed ... not speeding up or slowing down ... and in a straight line.
What is root mean square velocity?
For an object moving at a variable velocity you:calculate the square of the velocityfind its mean valuecalculate its square root.If the velocity is constant then the RMS velocity has the same value.
What will be acceleration of a car moving in a circular motion with constant speed.?
If body is moving in a circle with uniform or constant speed its acceleration will be uniform as velocity i.e. to say direction is changing at every point.
Moving at constant velocity is also moving with constant speed?
Yes, when an object is moving at a constant velocity, it means it is moving with a consistent speed in a straight line. Velocity includes both speed and direction, so if the direction remains constant, the speed must also remain constant.
What are diifferent word for object?
a "body" "moving body" an "object" is moving with constant velocity. [OR] a "body" is moving with constant velocity.
When the velocity of a moving object stays the same it has a what speed?
When the velocity of a moving object stays the same, it has a constant speed.
When the velocity of a moving object stays the same it has a?
When the velocity of a moving object stays the same, it has a constant speed.
What is the word for not moving or moving at a constant speed in the same direction?
The word is "stationary" for not moving, and "constant velocity" for moving at a constant speed in the same direction.
What is difference between an object moving with uniform acceleration and an object moving with a constant velocity?
A motion with a constant speed will always be moving the same speed A motion with a constant acceleration will constantly be gaining speed, and does not remain moving at the same speed.
What do baoanced forces do to moving objects?
When all forces are balanced, the object can either be moving at a constant velocity or be at rest. But because you asked for balanced forces on a moving object, it is moving at a constant velocity.
What is an example of an object moving at constant speed and constant velocity?
An object moving in a straight line at a speed of 50 km/h with a constant velocity of 50 km/h in the same direction is an example of constant speed and constant velocity.
What is the slope of a constant velocity?
The slope of a velocity-time graph for an object moving at a constant velocity is equal to the value of the constant velocity.
Can an object have a constant speed and velocity at the same time?
Yes. An object moving in a straight line at constant speed has constant velocity.
If A car moves at constant speed also moving at constant velocity?
Not necessarily. Constant velocity also means no change in direction.
Is the velocity of a horizontal moving object constant?
Only if the direction is constant and the speed is constant.
