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.

If the satellite has a mass of 3900 kg , a radius of 4.3 m , and the rockets each add a mass of 210 kg , what is the required st
ehidna [41]

Answer:

The required steady force of each rocket is 28.79 N

Explanation:

mass of the satellite, M=3900 kg

radius, r=4.3 m

mass of rocket, m=210 kg

time, t=5.4 min

Moment of Inertia:

I = 1/2 (Mr^2) + 4mr^2

I = 1/2 ( 3900* (4.3)^2) + 4 (210)*(4.3)^2

I = 51587.1 kg m^2

the angular acceleration is:

a= w/t

here w= 2*π*30

so,

a= 2*π*30 / 5.4* 3600

a=0.0096 rad/ s^2

the Torque becomes:

T=I*a = 4r*F

( 51587.1 )*(0.0096) = 4*4.3* F

F= 28.79 N

the required steady force of each rocket is 28.79 N

State: the units for acceleration are?
krok68 [10]

A unit of acceleration needs a unit of length in the numerator
and a squared unit of time in the denominator.

Example:    meters / second²
                    feet / minute²
                    smoots / hour² 
                    furlongs / fortnight² .

Ideally, in order to completely describe an acceleration vector,
you also need to state a direction.

A low-luminosity star has a small and narrow ________, whereas a high-luminosity star has a large and wide one.
vova2212 [387]

A low-luminosity star has a small and narrow ​<u>habitable zone</u>, whereas a high-luminosity star has a large and wide one.

<h3>What is luminosity of a star?</h3>

The radiant power emitted by a light-emitting item over time is measured as luminosity, which is an absolute measure of radiated electromagnetic power (light).

The total quantity of electromagnetic energy released per unit of time by a star, galaxy, or other celestial object is referred to as luminosity in astronomy.
