Three Questions 1.Can a body moving with uniform speed have variable velocity?? 2.Can a body moving with uniform velocity have variable speed?? 3.Can average velocity ever become equal to instantaneous velocity?? 4.Can a body have acceleration with zero velocity?? 5.Can the direction of velocity change even if acceleration is constant?? Explain Ur answers with proper examples or hints!!

1. yes in circular motion speed does not change while velocity(vector, has the direction that changes all the time while speed is only a scalar so it has only a magnitude that doesn't change) changes
k........Second case??
2 It's not possible. speed is only magnitude , while velocity consists of magnitude(speed) but also direction etc.
M not gtin u at the second part!!
3.when velocity is constant in time instantaneous velocity is the same in every moment as average velocity
1st Check,3rd Check,2nd still doubt!!
4th and 5th??
4 of course it can have. when you throw an apple upwards there's always gravity that acts on an object, that means certain acceleration that gravity wants the object to have, but there is moment when apple reaches maximum height: velocity is zaero but object is always accelerated downwards in every moment in time with the same value( assuming you don't throw it too high:) )
lol.......Yeah Got 4th.....
5th and 2nd left
5 It's not possible. Acceleration is also a vector. They are connected by relation: \[a^{\rightarrow}=\frac{ dv^{\rightarrow} }{dt }\] (Idk how to draw arrows right at the top, plz tell me :) ) That means when velocity vector changes the acc vector must also change. There is a situation (circular motion) when magnitude of acc doesn't change and velocity vector changes all the time. but there's written only acceleration which itself isa vector
k
\[{\rightarrow}\]a
thats the closest I get @Fifciol
Can u xplain 2nd one one more time??
it's simply because velocity consists of speed
but velocity can change direction and speed not but that velocity is variable
If it covers unequal dist having displacements equal...wont that be true??
for 2nd case??
and constans mean in every moment in time
2.Can a body moving with uniform velocity have variable speed?? If velocity doesn't change, how can speed? Speed is just the magnitude or absolute value of velocity. If an object has constant velocity 10m/s west, how can it's speed ever change from 10m/s?
If you're driving 100km/h north, will your speed ever change from 100km/h?
