If an object is NOT accelerating, then one knows for sure that it is ___.

Physics
1 answer:
tatuchka [14]3 years ago
4 0

"Zero acceleration" means "velocity" that's not changing.

Sadly, it seems that both of these words are almost always
misinterpreted and misunderstood. "Acceleration" does NOT
mean "speeding up", and "velocity" does NOT mean speed.

"Velocity" is the speed AND direction of motion.  So, for example,
'30 miles per hour north' and '30 miles per hour west' are the same
speed but different velocities.

"Acceleration" is ANY change in speed OR direction.  Consider three
different families in three different cars.  One car is speeding up, one is
slowing down, and the third is driving around a curve at a steady speed.
ALL three of the cars are accelerating.

Reflection off of a smooth surface like a mirror is an example of diffuse reflection.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Reflection is when light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface. ... This is called diffuse reflection. Diffuse reflection is when light hits an object and reflects in lots of different directions.

Find the distance traveled by a particle with position (x, y) as t varies in the given time interval. x = 2 sin2(t), y = 2 cos2(
Tanya [424]

The distance traveled by the particle at the given time interval is 0.28 m.

<h3>Position of the particle at time, t = 0</h3>

The position of the particle at the given time is calculated as follows;

x = 2 sin2(t)

y = 2 cos2(t)

x(0) = 2 sin2(0) = 0

y(0) = 2 cos2(0) = 2(1) = 2

<h3>Position of the particle at time, t = 4</h3>

x = 2 sin2(t)

y = 2 cos2(t)

x(4) = 2 sin2(4) = 0.28

y(4) = 2 cos2(4) = 2(1) = 1.98

<h3>Distance traveled by the particle at the given time interval</h3>

d = √[(x₄ - x₀)² + (y₄ - y₀)²]

d =  √[(0.28 - 0)² + (1.98 - 2)²]

d = 0.28 m

Thus, the distance traveled by the particle at the given time interval is 0.28 m.

What is the angle of deviation in a plane mirror at normal incidence?​
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The deviation of a mirror is equal to twice the angle of incidence.The total angle between the straight-line path and the reflected ray is twice the angle of incidence. This is called the deviation of the light and measures the angle at which the light has strayed from its initial straight-line path.

HOPE IT HELPS :)
