Yes, acceleration only tells you how velocity is changing. It doesn't say anything about what velocity is at any given time.

For example, if you set your car to cruise control on the highway going 80 mph. That is a constant high velocity, yet the car has 0 acceleration.

The opposite is also true. After a red light turns green, you put foot on the gas to accelerate. However, your velocity is initially low even though it has high acceleration.

Of course !

A passenger jet, cruising at 37,000 feet on its way to California,
keeping a constant airspeed and flying in a straight line, can have
a velocity of 500 miles per hour west, but its acceleration is zero !

A basketball star exerts a force of 3225 n (average value) upon the gym floor in order to accelerate his 76.5-kg body upward. de

ryzh [129]

F = m . g = 76.5 x 9..8 = 749.7
Net Force = 3225 - 749.7 = 2475.3

F = m.a
2475.3 = 76.5 a

a = 32.35

V = at + v1
V = at + 0
V = 32.35 x 0.15
V = 4.8525

Newton’s second law of motion addresses the relationship between what two variables that influence the force on a body?

IgorC [24]

Newton’s Second Law concerns the generation of force based on an object’s mass and acceleration, as described by the equation F=ma.

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between the volume of a gas and its temperature, in Kelvin, assuming pressu

nekit [7.7K]

The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way.

Charles's law states that at a constant pressure, the volume of fixed a mass of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature or kelvin temperature.

Mathematically, this law can be written as follows;

$V = kT\\\\where;\\k \ \ is \ a \ constant \\\\T \ is \ kelvin \ temperature\\\\V \ is \ the \ volume \ of \ the \ gas$

This law explains the direct relationship between Volume of the gas and its Kelvin temperature. That is, as Temperature increases, the volume of the gas increases.

Thus, the correct statement is "The relationship is directly proportional; as temperature increases, volume increases in the same way".
