How do you find acceleration when given only mass and velocity?
You can't. Acceleration is change in velocity. If given a constant velocity, the acceleration is zero.
What is formulas finding speed and velocity?
velocity = distance / time There are also some formulae involving acceleration; for example, in the case of constant acceleration: velocity = initial velocity + acceleration x time If the acceleration is not constant, an integral is used instead.
If an object moves with constant acceleration what happens to the velocity?
The velocity increases at a constant rate.
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
What is the acceleration of a car that maintains a constant velocity of 100km per h for 10 seconds?
Acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero. Note: "100 km per h for 10 seconds" is a constant speed, but not necessarily a constant velocity, since we're told nothing about the direction. If the car moves in a perfectly straight line during those 10 seconds, then its velocity is constant. If it makes a curve, then its velocity is not constant even though its speed is, and there is 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.
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 acceleration of a rain drop that falls at a constant velocity?
If the velocity is constant then there is no acceleration. The acceleration is zero.
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.
Can something have both a constant velocity and constant acceleration?
No it cannot. It is either one or the other. For constant velocity, acceleration must be 0, meaning there is no acceleration happening here. If there is constant acceleration, then the velocity is constantly changing.
Can an object traveling at constant velocity have acceleration why?
If a velocity or speed is constant there isn't an acceleration. This is because the acceleration is the change in speed or velocity and if it's constant then there sn't a change.
Why is constant velocity not acceleration?
Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity. When velocity is constant, it is NOT CHANGING so acceleration is negligible or ZERO or non-existent.
Why is acceleration zero when the body is moving with a constant velocity?
Acceleration is the CHANGE in velocity; you're assuming CONSTANT velocity. So the acceleration is zero.
When the velocity of a particle is constant its acceleration is also constant?
Its acceleration is zero, which is constant
Is there an acceleration when an object traveling at constant velocity and why?
No. Acceleration is change of velocity / time. If there is no change in velocity, there is no acceleration.
Is there an acceleration if the velocity is constant?
no no
Can an object have zero velocity and nonzero acceleration?
Yes. An object moving at constant velocity has zero acceleration. The constant velocity van be any constant including zero velocity. Mathematics acceleration a=dv/dt = 0. Solving this gives v = constant.
