Question
If the acceleration of a body is zero, does it mean that its velocity is also zero? (Yes/No)
Open in App
Solution
Acceleration = rate of change of velocity with
respect to time
a
=
d
d
t
(
v
)
=
d
v
d

[a = acceleration, v = velocity]
Here Acceleration is zero but velocity in not zero
→
When the body is moving with constant velocity
and its acceleration is zero
a
