Volume = mass / density; there zero volume means the mass is zero. You can divide zero, but you cannot divide by zero. A gravitational singularity, associated with a black hole, is said to be thought of a zero volume and infinity density.

Note: The massless condition of a gravitational singularity is expected to experience the same gravitational acceleration as other black hole mass with near zero volume (which provides empirical evidence for the equivalence principle) because they do have relativistic mass.

Mass in special relativity incorporates the general understandings from the concept of mass-energy equivalence. Added to this concept is an additional complication resulting from the fact that "mass" is defined in two different ways in special relativity: one way defines mass ("rest mass" or "invariant mass") as an invariant quantity which is the same for all observers in all reference frames; in the other definition, the measure of mass ("relativistic mass") is dependent on the velocity of the observer. Thus, perpendicular components of forces acting on massless particles simply change their direction of motion, the angle change in radians being GM/rc2 with gravitational lensing, a result predicted by general relativity. The behavior of massless particles is understood by virtue of special relativity. For example, these particles must always move at the speed of light. In this context, they are sometimes called luxons to distinguish them from bradyons and tachyons.

What does the term degree zero mean?

Degree zero refers to mathematical objects or functions that have no non-zero terms or components. In the context of polynomials, a degree zero polynomial is simply a constant term. In linear algebra, a vector space can have elements with degree zero, such as the zero vector.


Why will pressure or volume never equal to zero?

Pressure and volume cannot be equal to zero because absolute zero pressure and volume represent the absence of matter or particles. In reality, there will always be some amount of gas particles present, even if it is very low, which will result in a non-zero pressure and volume.


Justify that the volume of given mass if a gas becomes theoretically zero at -273c?

At -273°C, a gas would reach absolute zero on the Kelvin scale, which is 0K. At this temperature, all molecular motion stops, causing the volume of the gas to theoretically become zero. This is because gases have negligible volume and are assumed to occupy zero volume at absolute zero.


What is the volume of gas when the temperature is 0 Celsius?

Answer: computer says no?Answer: Also zero. This is hypothetical; an extrapolation. No real substance can be cooled all the way to zero Kelvin, and no gas would remain a gas at temperatures approaching that temperature.


When Kelvin predicted Absolute Zero he used Charles' law however in theory this means that a gas at absolute zero has a volume of zero how can this be?

Technically it can't be, since you would be destroying matter and the Law of Conservation of Matter states that matter cannot be created nor destroyed. The theory of absolute theory is just that; theoretical. It was created by the extrapolation of Charle's discoveries about volume and temperature with his balloon experiment, in which the data was extrapolated along a best fit line. If you were to create a method to change something's volume to zero though, let me know, I want to become rich too.

What would have happened if objects had no density?

Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.

Any number bigger than, or equal to zero. (Yes, zero is included).


Why would you not be able to continue decreasing the volume of a syringe until the volume was zero?

If the volume is zero, then there is no volume left in the syringe to measure.


What value should theoretically be obtained for the intercept on a graph of mass vs volume HINT The intercept corresponds to zero mass and zero volume?

The intercept on a graph of mass vs. volume should be zero, as this point represents zero mass and zero volume. This makes sense because with no mass and no volume, there should be no measurements of mass either.


What does the term volume mean in mathematical terms?

How many ozs equal one sq ft?

none, since ozs is a unit of volume and square feet is a unit of area. Note that we do not mean "zero" by "none". What we mean is that volume can not be converted to area
