- We know, acceleration is the change of velocity by time.
- Velocity is the speed of an object which also indicates the direction.
- Hence, acceleration is both dependant upon the speed as well as the direction.
- So, if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, the acceleration will also change. It will not be zero.
- An example is that of uniform circular motion.
Answer:
if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, the acceleration of the object will not be zero.
Answer:
Distance, d = 192 meters
Explanation:
We have,
Initial velocity of an object is 10 m/s
Acceleration of the object is 3.5 m/s²
Time, t = 8 s
We need to find the distance travelled by the object during that time. Second equation of motion gives the distance travelled by the object. It is given by :


So, the distance travelled by the object is 192 meters.
Answer:
The gravitational potential energy between two particles, if the distance between them is halved, is multiplied by 4 (option c).
Explanation:
The gravitational force is the force of mutual attraction that two objects with mass experience.
The Law of Universal Gravitation enunciated by Newton says that every material particle attracts any other material particle with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them. Mathematically this is expressed as:

where m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, r the distance between them and G a universal constant that receives the name of constant of gravitation.
If the distance between two particles is reduced by half, then, where F' is the new value of the gravitational force:




F'=4*F

“Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction by which offspring arise from a single organism, and inherit the genes of that parent only; it does not involve the fusion of gametes, and almost never changes the number of chromosomes.” -Wikipedia
