Constant speed is when an object maintains a consistent velocity over time without any changes in direction or acceleration.
Constant speed is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time it takes to travel that distance. The formula for calculating constant speed is: speed = distance/time.
Constant speed refers to the exact speed an object is traveling at a specific moment, while average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time it took to travel that distance. Average speed takes into account changes in speed, while constant speed does not.
No, an object can only have constant speed if its velocity remains the same. Velocity includes both speed and direction, so if either of these factors change, the object's velocity is also changing.
Some examples of constant speed in real life include a car driving on a highway with cruise control, a runner maintaining a steady pace during a race, and a satellite orbiting the Earth at a consistent speed.
