If an object has zero acceleration, does it have to have zero velocity?

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Yes, the velocity would also be zero.

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time, therefore, there has to be a change in velocity for something to accelerate. which means without acceleration, the object has no velocity.

A person takes a trip, driving with a constant speed of 99.5 km/h, except for a 26.0-min rest stop. The person's average speed i

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

1.65 h

121.39 km

Explanation:

Given that

speed of the driver, v = 99.5 km/h

time spent resting, t = 26 min

Average speed of the driver = 73.6 km/h

In an RLC series circuit that includes a source of alternating current operating at fixed frequency and voltage, the resistance

maw [93]

Answer:

Capacitive Reactance is 4 times of resistance

Solution:

As per the question:

R = $X_{L} = j\omega L = 2\pi fL$

where

R = resistance

$X_{L} = Inductive Reactance$

f = fixed frequency

Now,

For a parallel plate capacitor, capacitance, C:

$C = \frac{\epsilon_{o}A}{x}$

where

x = separation between the parallel plates

Thus

C ∝ $\frac{1}{x}$

Now, if the distance reduces to one-third:

Capacitance becomes 3 times of the initial capacitace, i.e., x' = 3x, then C' = 3C and hence Current, I becomes 3I.

Also,

$Z = \sqrt{R^{2} + (X_{L} - X_{C})^{2}}$

Also,

Z ∝ I

Therefore,

$\frac{Z}{I} = \frac{Z'}{I'}$

$\frac{\sqrt{R^{2} + (R - X_{C})^{2}}}{3I} = \frac{\sqrt{R^{2} + (R - \frac{X_{C}}{3})^{2}}}{I}$

${R^{2} + (R - X_{C})^{2}} = 9({R^{2} + (R - \frac{X_{C}}{3})^{2}})$

${R^{2} + R^{2} + X_{C}^{2} - 2RX_{C} = 9({R^{2} + R^{2} + \frac{X_{C}^{2}}{9} - 2RX_{C})$

Solving the above eqn:

$X_{C} = 4R$
