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

Physics

k0ka [10]3 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.

Answer: please see below

Explanation:

A manned space exploration is defined as the exploration of individuals --- astronauts in space using a spacecraft as a vehicle and are  responsible for operating its controls

The extreme conditions in space that challenge manned space exploration is as follows.

1. extreme loud sound waves cause by the launch of spacecraft which can shatter the spacecraft

2. extreme Temperatures in space ranging from extreme hot temperatures  (near the sun) to extreme cold temperatures  ( below freezing point out of space.

3.micrometeorite showers responsible for sandblasting can  damage spacecraft.

4.Ultra violet Radiation which can alter the control unit of the spacecraft  

Because of theses extreme conditions that pose challenges to space explorations, necessary precautions should be taken into consideration to be able to overcome such challenges. These precautions include building the spacecraft and the control unit in such a way that can resist these harmful conditions, also taking in mind safe escape routes for the astronauts in case of failures.

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Since you would have to do work on the charge to bring it back to its original position, the charge moves to a position of lower potential and lower potential energy.

1. Describe the differences in the ways the sand castle is changed by an ocean wave and by Dylan stomping on it
Snezhnost [94]

A sand castle that was changed by the ocean waves would be slowly taken away from by the waves and would just become a smooth mound of sand. If Dylan stomped on it then it would still have all of the same sand as before but in a different shape. It would also become a mound of sand but it would have all the same sand as before.


(I don't know if I was supposed to talk about fancy physics stuff so I just gave a basic explanation. I don't know if my answer is really right or not... hope it helped though :))
