    When we had our fence replaced our utilities were marked. They left bright orange lines on the street and they have not gone away. It's kinda ugly.

    Short answer, yes. Speed is linear, no matter how you look at it. It's been too long since i took physics to make this post sound intelligent, but I can say with full confidence that you have to come to a complete stop at least "instantaneously" before you start accelerating in the opposite direction.

    Hehe, curves are a **** and would counter the arguement of ever needing 0 velocity. As does a constantly changing point of reference.
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    To add a bit more to the other explanations:

    Red is Electric
    Orange is phone
    Yellow is natural gas
    Green is sewer
    Blue is drinking water
    Purple is reclaimed water (for irrigation, etc. non-potable)
    Pink is survey markings
    White is a proposed excavation, i.e. a new underground line for whatever

    I'm not sure off the top of my head what other things like steam lines might be.

    Yes, but he was talking about just reversing direction, not turning around. And even if you were turning around, somewhere during that curve you would have a zero velocity relative to your original direction.

    Like I said, frame of reference. Example: Right now you have a velocity of zero compared to the items areound you and a persons typical frame of reference. Now compared to someone sitting at the center of the universe, you are under constant acceleration of different types and most certainly not at a velocity of zero. Also, is it the average speed of the matter? In practical purpose, you would achieve zero.

    Impulse functions exist in nature. Namele photons and other supatomic particles can exibit the phenomenon. Big bang would be another example.

    Wow, talk about going WAY too deep there. When an officer pulls you over, do you say "sure, I was doing sixty ina 30, relative to the road. But on a planetary level, the earth was spinning at 1037MPH (actual number) so it really is a pretty insignificant thing, right officer?" I think you'd get pistol whipped.

    Take his question in the context it was asked and stop bein a smartass.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
