A zero of the derivative will always appear between two zeroes of the polynomial. However, they do not always alternate. Sometimes two or more zeroes of the derivative will occur between two zeroes of a polynomial. This is often seen with quartic or quintic polynomials (polynomials with the highest exponent of 4th or 5th power).

What happens to the acceleration of a simple pendulum as it approaches the lowest point of its swing?

The velocity reaches a maximum, and the pendulum will begin to decelerate. Because the acceleration is the derivative of the velocity, and the derivative at the location of an extrema is zero, the acceleration goes to zero.


What is failover support?

In computer networks, failover support is a method for protecting availability of a computer resource. For failover support to work, a component must have a redundant or alternate and there must be an ability to detect the failure of the primary component and switch to the alternate. As an example, a company web site may be hosted at one location but have an alternate hosted at a different location. If the primary site goes down, traffic directed to the primary site is redirected to the alternate site in a manner that is transparent to the outside user.
