Zero Definition and 1000 Threads

Gonzalo Raúl Barrios Castro (born April 17, 1995), known by his gamertag ZeRo, is a Chilean former professional Super Smash Bros. player and streamer. He was considered the best Super Smash Bros. for Wii U player in the world throughout his career, with a record-breaking 56 consecutive tournament wins in the game from November 2014 to October 2015, including high-profile tournaments such as EVO 2015 and The Big House 5. Prior to the release of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, he was a top ranked Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Project M player. His best known characters are Diddy Kong in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Pit in Project M, Meta Knight in Brawl, and Fox in Melee. He is the only player to have earned more than US$100,000 playing Super Smash Bros. for Wii U competitively.
Barrios retired from professional competition in July 2020 following allegations of sexting two minors in 2014, which also led to Barrios' sponsors cutting ties with him. Barrios later publicly admitted to the allegations.

    Finding the Zero Point of Electric Potential Between Two Point Charges

    Homework Statement Two point charges are placed on the x axis. The charge + 5 q is at x =1.50m , and the charge −q is at x= -1.50m . There is a point on the x-axis between the two charges where the electric potential is zero. Where is this point? The electric potential also vanishes...

    MHB Show that the limit is equal to zero

    It is given that $a_{n}$ is a positive and decreasing sequence. Show that if $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_{n}$ converges, $\lim_{n \to \infty}na_{n}=0$. That's what I tried.Could you tell me if it is right?? $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_{n}$ converges,so it satisfies the Cauchy criterion,so : $\forall m,n$...

    How do we know (BΨ) is not equal to zero?

    Suppose that operators A and B have complete sets of eigenfunctions, [A, B] = 0, and Ψ is an eigenfunction of A with the eigenvalue a, namely AΨ=aΨ. Then we have A(BΨ) = BAΨ = a (BΨ). They say (BΨ) is also the eigenfunction of A. Why? How do we know (BΨ) is not equal to zero?
