Why is acceleration of an object moving at a constant velocity always zero?

Physics
1 answer:
k0ka [10]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

If an object is moving with a constant velocity, then by definition it has zero acceleration. So there is no net force acting on the object. The total work done on the object is thus 0 (that's not to say that there isn't work done by individual forces on the object, but the sum is 0 ).

Explanation:

In the middle, when the object was changing position at a constant velocity, the acceleration was 0. This is because the object is no longer changing its velocity and is moving at a constant rate.

A current of 5 A is flowing in a 20 mH inductor. The energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is:_______
Kipish [7]

Answer:

C. 0.25J

Explanation:

Energy stored in the magnetic field of the inductor is expressed as E = 1/2LI² where;

L is the inductance

I is the current flowing in the inductor

Given parameters

L = 20mH = 20×10^-3H

I = 5A

Required

Energy stored in the magnetic field.

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 5²

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 25

E = 10×10^-3 × 25

E = 0.01 × 25

E = 0.25Joules.

Hence the energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is 0.25Joules

Which statement bet explains the relationship between the electric force between two charged objects and the distance between th
Nataliya [291]
Coulomb's Law: Force = k x q1x q2 divided distance square
where k=9x10^9 , q1 and q2 are the charge
So if you distance is halved, your force is stronger by 4 times
and if you distance is doubled, your force is 1/4
Ask me again if you aren't clear :)
