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.

    Q.M. harmonic oscillator spring constant goes to zero at t=0

    Homework Statement A one-dimensional harmonic oscillator is in the ground state. At t=0, the spring is cut. Find the wave-function with respect to space and time (ψ(x,t)). Note: At t=0 the spring constant (k) is reduced to zero. So, my question is mostly conceptual. Since the spring...

    MHB Why is the integral of $\frac{1}{z+2}$ over $\gamma(0;1)$ equal to zero?

    Hello i would like to know why this integral is Zero: $$\int_{\gamma(0;1)}\frac{1}{z+2} \mathrm{d}z$$ Well i know by a fundamental result that: $$\int_{\gamma(a;r)}\frac{1}{z-a} \mathrm{d}z=2\pi\imath$$ But here the point $$z=-2$$ lies outside $$\gamma(0;1)$$ so what is the reasoning behind...

    Can a rotating object have zero kinetic energy?

    Do electric fields in a conductor go to zero in all instances?

    In the absence of external forces, the electric field inside a conductor is supposed to go to zero. This is because if any field were to exist, then the charges in the conductor would experience force and continue moving until they canceled the field. However, is it true that for any system a...
