State which of the following situations are possible and give an example for each of these :
(a). An object with a constant acceleration but with zero velocity.
(b). An object moving in a certain direction with acceleration in the perpendicular direction.
Answers
(a). An object with a constant acceleration but with zero velocity.
Answer : The term acceleration implies that the velocity of the object is changing in spite of that constant acceleration with zero velocity is possible when an object is thrown in upward direction at the maximum height the velocity of the object becomes zero but still in that condition a constant acceleration due to gravity acts. ✔️✔️
(b). An object moving in a certain direction with acceleration in the perpendicular direction
Answer: Object moving in a certain direction with acceleration in the perpendicular direction is possible; in case of circular motion. When an object moves in a circular path, its direction is along the tangent of the circle but the acceleration is towards the radius of the circle. We know that a attendant always makes a right angle with the radius; so when an object is in circular motion the acceleration and the velocity are in mutually perpendicular directions.✔️✔️

Answer:
The term acceleration implies that the velocity of the object is changing. The vertical projection of particle is one example. When an object is thrown in upward direction, at the maximum height the velocity of the object becomes zero but still in that condition a constant acceleration due to gravity is working.
(b) Object moving in a certain direction with an acceleration in perpendicular direction is possible; in case of circular motion. When an object moves on a circular path, its direction is along the tangent of the circle but the centripetal acceleration is towards the radius of the circle. We know, that a tangent always makes a right angle with the radius; so when an object is in circular motion, the acceleration and velocity are in mutually perpendicular direction.
