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

Physics

k0ka [10]3 years ago

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.

Matter behaving like a wave rather than like a particle is best illustrated by which phenomenon?
Novay_Z [31]
<span>The photoelectric effect is about electrons being ejected from metals when light is shined on metals. The electrons do not behave like waves in the photoelectric effect. Black body radiation is all about the radiation emitted by warm bodies and not about those bodies behaving like waves. The emission spectra of atoms is all about what light is given off by atoms when electrons in those atoms jump down to lower energy levels from higher levels. That also has nothing to do with matter behaving as a wave. Interference is classically defined as the generation of a new wave with an amplitude modulated according to the waves that interfere to form that new wave. Note its emphasis on the wave part.</span>

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tank. The fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differential h
Sloan [31]

Answer:

77.88 lbm/ft³

Explanation:

Given,

Specific gravity, SG = 1.25

Density of water, ρ = 62.30 lbm/ft³

density of the fluid =

   = S.G x ρ_{water}

   = 62.30 x 1.25

   = 77.88 lbm/ft³

Density of the fluid is equal to 77.88 lbm/ft³

GarryVolchara [31]
From the first law of thermodynamics, we use the equation expressed as:

ΔH = Q + W

where Q is the heat absorbed of the system and W is the work done.

We calculate as follows:

ΔH = Q + W
ΔH = 829 J + 690 J = 1519 J

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
