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

Physics
1 answer:
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.

Which of the conductor has the greatest resistance? ​
frozen [14]

Explanation:

R = V/I

Since this is an I/V graph, the greater the slope of the line the lower the R value.

Hence we find the line with the smallest slope, which is conductor M.

MIDDLE SCHOOL SCIENCE- <br> Please help, I will give brainliest to best answer.
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

1.) Waves carry energy through empty space or through a medium without transporting matter. While all waves can transmit energy through a medium, certain waves can also transmit energy through empty space. ... When waves travel through a medium, the particles of the medium are not carried along with the wave.

2.) Mechanical Waves are waves which propagate through a material medium (solid, liquid, or gas) at a wave speed which depends on the elastic and inertial properties of that medium. There are two basic types of wave motion for mechanical waves: longitudinal waves and transverse waves. Longitudinal waves vibrating in the direction of propagation while Transverse waves vibrate at right angles to the direction of its propagation.

3.) They can carry a little energy or a lot of energy. They can be transverse or longitudinal. However, all waves have common properties—amplitude, wavelength, frequency, and speed. Amplitude describes how far the medium in a wave moves.

A small plane flies at 200 km/h in still air. If the wind blows directly out of the west at 50.0 km/h, (a) in what direction mus
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

a)θ=74.03°  (N-E)

b)t=1.56 hr

Explanation:

Given that

Plane speed = 200 km/h

Wind speed = 55 km/h

Now from diagram

V is the resultant velocity of plane

200^2=V^2+55^2

V=192.28 km/h towards north

From triangle ABC

cos\theta =\dfrac{55}{200}

θ=74.03°

Given that

d=300 km

We know that

d = V x t

300 = 192.28 x t

t=1.56 hr

A car traveling at 22m/s is in an accident, and the 81 kg driver is brought to a stop in 1.4 s by in inflating airbag. What forc
larisa86 [58]
Here, F = m * a
F = m * v/t
Here, m = 81 Kg
v = 22 m/s
t = 1,4 s

Substitute their values, 
F = 81 * 22/1.4
F = 81 * 15.71
F = 1273 N
So, Closest value from your options is 1300 N

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!
