What happens to the acceleration when the velocity is zero

Physics

Ulleksa [173]3 years ago

<h2>Answer:</h2>

It's easy to fall into the temptation to say that when the velocity is zero, then the acceleration is also zero. But wait! To answer this question we need to bring out the concept of instantaneous velocity. This type of velocity stands for a specific moment, a specific instant of time, that is, t=1, \ t=2, \ t=3, \ t=3.2 \ t=4.5. If so, then acceleration may not be zero when velocity is zero. For example, suppose you throw an object upward, when it is at the top of the travel the instantaneous velocity is zero because it changes from positive to negative value and there is a moment when it must be zero, but yet there is a constant acceleration by the Earth's gravity at that moment. Even though the velocity at that stationary moment is zero, it doesn't imply the acceleration must be zero, so it has a value and in this case is -9.8m/s^{2}

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Mass released = 8.6 g

Given data:

Initial number of moles nitrogen= 0.950 mol

Initial volume = 25.5 L

Final mass of nitrogen released  = ?

Final volume = 17.3 L

Formula:

V₁/n₁  = V₂/n₂

25.5 L / 0.950 mol = 17.3 L/n₂

n₂ =  17.3 L× 0.950 mol/25.5 L

n₂ = 16.435 L.mol /25.5 L

n₂ = 0.644 mol

Initial mass of nitrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.950 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 26.6 g

Final mass of nitrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.644 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 18.0 g

Mass released = initial mass - final mass

Mass released = 26.6 g - 18.0 g

Mass released = 8.6 g

Three conducting plates, each of area A, are connected as shown.
Shkiper50 [21]
You have effectively got two capacitors in parallel. The effective capacitance is just the sum of the two. 
Cequiv = ε₀A/d₁ + ε₀A/d₂ Take these over a common denominator (d₁d₂) 
Cequiv = ε₀d₂A + ε₀d₁A / (d₁d₂) Cequiv = ε₀A( (d₁ + d₂) / (d₁d₂) ) 
B) It's tempting to just wave your arms and say that when d₁ or d₂ tends to zero C -> ∞, so the minimum will occur in the middle, where d₁ = d₂ 
But I suppose we ought to kick that idea around a bit. 
(d₁ + d₂) is effectively a constant. It's the distance between the two outer plates. Call it D. 
C = ε₀AD / d₁d₂ We can also say: d₂ = D - d₁ C = ε₀AD / d₁(D - d₁) C = ε₀AD / d₁D - d₁² 
Differentiate with respect to d₁ 
dC/dd₁ = -ε₀AD(D - 2d₁) / (d₁D - d₁²)² {d2C/dd₁² is positive so it will give us a minimum} For max or min equate to zero. 
-ε₀AD(D - 2d₁) / (d₁D - d₁²)² = 0 -ε₀AD(D - 2d₁) = 0 ε₀, A, and D are all non-zero, so (D - 2d₁) = 0 d₁ = ½D 
In other words when the middle plate is halfway between the two outer plates, (quelle surprise) so that 
d₁ = d₂ = ½D so 
Cmin = ε₀AD / (½D)² Cmin = 4ε₀A / D Cmin = 4ε₀A / (d₁ + d₂)

I need help with these questions.
strojnjashka [21]

I'll go ahead and answer the ones here without an answer. For reference, the half-life formula is <em>final amount = original amount(1/2)^(time/half-life)</em>

<em />

4) 12.5g

x = 100(1/2)^(63/21)

5) 50g

3.125 = x(1/2)^(0.1/0.025)

6) 500g

x = 4000(1/2)^(525/175)

7) 0.24g

0.06 = x(1/2)^(11430/5730)

8) 125g

x = 1000(1/2)^(17100/5700)

Hope this helps! :)
