Acceleration of a liquid refers to the rate at which its velocity changes over time. In other words, it is the increase in speed of the liquid as it moves in a certain direction.
An accelerated liquid will exhibit properties such as increased turbulence, swirling, and changes in surface tension. It may also follow a curved path due to the forces acting on it.
The acceleration of a liquid is affected by factors such as the force applied, the density and viscosity of the liquid, and the shape and size of the container it is in.
When the force is removed, the accelerated liquid will continue to move in a straight line at a constant speed, until acted upon by another force. This is due to the law of inertia, which states that an object will maintain its state of motion unless acted upon by an external force.
Yes, an accelerated liquid can reach a constant velocity if the force acting on it is balanced by an equal and opposite force, resulting in a net force of zero. This is known as terminal velocity.
