A mass suspended from a spring is oscillating up and down as indicated. Consider the following possibilities. A At some point du

ring the oscillation the mass has zero velocity but its acceleration is non-zero (can be either positive or negative); B At some point during the oscillation the mass has zero velocity and zero acceleration; C At some point during the oscillation the mass has non-zero velocity (can be either positive or negative) but has zero acceleration; D At all points during the oscillation the mass has non-zero velocity and has nonzero acceleration (either can be positive or negative). Which possibility or possibilities occur?

A mass suspended from a spring is oscillating up and down, (as stated but not indicated).

A). At some point during the oscillation the mass has zero velocity but its acceleration is non-zero (can be either positive or negative).  <em>Yes. </em> This statement is true at the top and bottom ends of the motion.

B). At some point during the oscillation the mass has zero velocity and zero acceleration.  No.  If the mass is bouncing, this is never true.  It only happens if the mass is hanging motionless on the spring.

C). At some point during the oscillation the mass has non-zero velocity (can be either positive or negative) but has zero acceleration.  <em>Yes.</em>  This is true as the bouncing mass passes through the "zero point" ... the point where the upward force of the stretched spring is equal to the weight of the mass.  At that instant, the vertical forces on the mass are balanced, and the net vertical force is zero ... so there's no acceleration at that instant, because (as Newton informed us), A = F/m .  

D). At all points during the oscillation the mass has non-zero velocity and has nonzero acceleration (either can be positive or negative).  No.  This can only happen if the mass is hanging lifeless from the spring.  If it's bouncing, then It has zero velocity at the top and bottom extremes ... where acceleration is maximum ... and maximum velocity at the center of the swing ... where acceleration is zero.

Alternative sources of energy include : geothermal
baherus [9]

Answer:

All of the above

Explanation:

The correct answer is option E (All of the above)

All the options are alternative source of energy.

The option given are not the traditional way (energy production from coal) of extracting energy as the loss of natural resources does not take place in these source of energy.

energy extracted from wind,  solar light , hydrogen ,etc are the source of energy  the alternative source of production of energy because do not exploit the natural resources, reduce the carbon emission and energy produced by them is clean energy.

Does displacement = Δx?
Volgvan
Typically no. Displacement can be in multiple directions as a vector. of something is traveling only along x, then it would be true though this is usually not the case.
