Acceleration = 0 because the car is moving at a STEADY velocity. It is neither speeding up, nor slowing down.
Yes, it's acceleration will be zero because the velocity isn't changing, but it has an acceleration. Think of it in terms of integration and derivation. Acceleration is the derivative of velocity, so if velocity is a constant number the acceleration must be zero.Generally if value of acceleration is "zero", we consider it to mean that there is NO acceleration. The question that was actually answered above was "Can acceleration be DEFINED fora body moving at constant speed?"It is possible for an object to be moving at a constant angular speed and yet have an effective acceleration in a tangential direction.===========================================Both of you guys are missing the most important point here, with the resultthat you have to twist your own arm almost to the point of dislocation in orderto state an answer.The essential underlying consideration is that, contrary to popular misconception,"acceleration" does not mean 'speeding up', or even 'changing speed'. It means"change in velocity", and "velocity" means "speed anddirection". If either speedor direction change, then that means there is 'acceleration'.The answer to the question is simple, and almost entirely non-technical. It is:"Yes, because 'acceleration' means change of either speed or direction. So, ifthe direction of the body's motion is changing, then the body has acceleration,even if its speed is constant."
In case of uniform acceleration,the graph will be a straight line with a +ve slope ,if we are taking velocity along Y-axis and time along X-axis.hence it's slope will give u acceleration.
It isn't really simple to explain; to get a thorough understanding, you MUST understand a few basic concepts. See below. But basically, a force will result in an acceleration; the amount of acceleration an object experiences will depend on the force (more force will result in more acceleration), and on the object's mass (more mass will result in less acceleration). The basic concepts that are important to understand are the following: * Acceleration as a rate of change in velocity - how fast velocity changes. * Both velocity and acceleration are vectors. * A reduction in speed is a change in velocity; so is a change in direction, even if the speed doesn't change. In this case, in physics you would still talk about "acceleration"; even though in popular terms, "acceleration" is usually understood as an increase in speed. * The NET FORCE must be considered - the vector sum of all forces that act on an object. It is quite common that a force acts on an object, but it doesn't accelerate - in which case there is a counter-force that is balancing the first force.
They are related through the formula distance = time x velocity (assuming constant velocity).
You already answered the question. Both cars are traveling at 70kmph, which is the same velocity.
when velocity of a car is increasing then velocity and acceleration are parallel to each other.
Velocity is parallel to acceleration when an object is moving with constant speed in a straight line, as the direction of the velocity and acceleration vectors are aligned. This means that the object's speed may be constant, but its direction can change.
Of course. A car with brakes applied and slowing down has forward velocity and rearward acceleration.
The velocity and acceleration of a body are parallel when the body is moving along a straight path with a constant speed. In this case, the velocity is constant, and since acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, it is zero. Therefore, both the velocity and acceleration vectors are parallel and pointing in the same direction.
Yes, it is possible to have zero acceleration with a non-zero velocity. This occurs when the velocity is constant. On a velocity-time graph, a flat, horizontal line represents constant velocity, while a zero slope (flat line) represents zero acceleration.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time. Therefore, when there is a change in velocity, it directly affects acceleration because acceleration is influenced by how quickly or slowly an object's velocity changes. If an object speeds up, slows down, or changes direction, its velocity changes, leading to a corresponding change in acceleration.
Newton's second law of motion mathematically relates acceleration to force as F = ma, where F is the force applied to an object, m is its mass, and a is its acceleration. Acceleration is also related to velocity through the equation a = Δv/t, where Δv is the change in velocity over time t. So, Newton's laws help explain the relationship between acceleration, velocity, and force.
Acceleration is the change of velocity, with direction. Therefore slowing down is a change in veolcity, so is considered to be acceleration (just negative acceleration).
Acceleration is change in velocity over time. a = vf - vi/Δt, where a is acceleration, vf is final velocity, vi is initial velocity, and Δt is the time interval. For example, a car accelerates from rest to 15m/s in 5.9s. What its acceleration? vi = 0m/s, vf = 27m/s, Δt = 5.9s, a = ? a = 27m/s - 0m/s/5.9s = 4.6m/s/s = 4.6m/s2
Yes, an object with zero velocity can have an acceleration that is greater than zero if there is a change in its velocity over time. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so even if the object starts with zero velocity, it can still accelerate if its velocity increases or decreases.
Acceleration refers to an increase in speed or velocity, while deceleration refers to a decrease in speed or velocity. Acceleration can be positive (speeding up) or negative (slowing down), while deceleration is always negative. Both terms refer to changes in an object's velocity over time.
You're fishing for "acceleration", but your description doesn't support that answer.Acceleration is also present if the direction of motion has changed, even if the speed(the size of velocity) hasn't changed.Acceleration explains the change in an objects velocity over time.
