One of your fellow students comes up to you and asks the following question, "If an object is not moving, can it be accelerating

?" Based on your prior knowledge of this topic, what is the best response? A). Yes, becuase acceleration depends on the rate of change of velocity and not the value of velocity itself.
B). No, acceleration and velocity are equivalent, so if one equals zero, the other must also equal zero.
D). Yes, but only if the object's acceleration is very small.
D). Yes, but only if the acceleration is negative in order to keep velocity equal to zero.

Answer:

correct answer is option A (Yes, becuase acceleration depends on the rate of change of velocity and not the value of velocity itself.)

Explanation:

we know that from first equation of motion,

v=u+at

0r

a=\frac{v-u}{t}............(1)

here,

v-final velocity

u-initial velocity

a-acceleration

t-time

if a body is not moving it means if its initial velocity is zero (u=0) and if after time t it moves with velocity v then its acceleration will be given as

a=\frac{v}{t}...........(2)

From above equation it is clear that if an object is not moving, it can be accelerating because acceleration depends on rate of change of velocity and not the value of velocity itself.

What does the positive sign tell you about any vector<br> quantity ?
vredina [299]

Answer:

With a vector, however, the sign simply tells you about the direction of the vector. If you're travelling with a velocity of 20 km/hr east, it means you're travelling east, and your speed is 20 km/hr.

ANSWER FAST PLSSSSSS Use this diagram of the wave below to answer any questions that follow
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

1. Letter A indicates the crest.

2. Letter E indicates the wavelength.

3. Letter C indicates the trough.

Explanation:

1. Determination of the the crest.

A crest is simply defined as a point on a wave where the displacement is maximum (i.e highest).

Considering the diagram given above, the point where the displacement is maximum is A. Therefore, A is the crest of the wave.

2. Determination of the wavelength.

The wavelength of a wave is simply defined as the distance between two successive crest or trough.

Obeserving the diagram above, we can see that E gives the distance between two successive crest. Therefore, E is the wavelength of the wave.

3. Determination of the trough.

A trough is simply defined as a point on a wave where the displacement is minimum (i.e lowest). Thus we can say that the trough is the opposite of the crest.

Considering the diagram given above, the point where the displacement is minimum is C. Therefore, C is the trough of the wave.
