What is the changing direction while sailing is?
Upwind = tack, Down wind = gybe
Which is the ability to maintain control while changing direction?
Agility-The ability to maintain control while changing direction
What is sailing?
Sailing is a sport that requires the changing of the rigging and rudder on a boat to change the direction and speed of the boat. The boat is moved by wind against the sails.
What direction must the ship be sailing?
In such a direction that it is not 'standing into danger'.
When you go around a curve is your velocity changing?
Yes; although speed ( a scalar quantity) may be constant the velocity ( a vector with quantity and direction) is changing because the direction is changing
Does the coriolis effect on the direction you are sailing?
Yes!
When cars are changing direction they are also changing what?
They are changing velocity. Velocity is the measure of speed and direction
Is changing direction really the same as changing speed?
No. It is possible to change direction without changing speed. However, it is not possible to change direction without changing velocity.
Is centripetal acceleration a uniform acceleration give reason?
No it is not because its direction is constantly changing. It is not a constant force. Force has direction as well as magintude and while it magnitude is constant its direction is not.
How do you idenitfy ship sailing direction?
By compass heading
Can you control sound wave direction by changing the direction and presure of air?
You can control sound wave direction, by changing the direction and pressure of air.
How can a vehicle at the same time have a constant speed but changing velocity?
Speed is a scalar quantity (direction does not matter) and velocity is a vector quantity) ie velocity means speed in a specific direction. If you are changing direction (turning) in a car, your speed is the same, while your velocity changes.
