| Jul 10, 2023 at 6:10 | comment | added | PM 2Ring | Ok. We have some old questions on the theme of "is there anything that velocity does to an object that's detectable in an instantaneous snapshot?" Eg, physics.stackexchange.com/q/609198/123208 & physics.stackexchange.com/q/508066/123208 | |

| Jul 10, 2023 at 6:02 | comment | added | Musical Maestro | Yes , 35mph is a typo. Thanks for pointing out. | |

| Jul 8, 2023 at 3:28 | comment | added | Ghoster | I somehow stop the time. That’s impossible. We only deal with mainstream physics, so questions about stopping time are off-topic. | |

| Jul 7, 2023 at 17:52 | comment | added | Amit | Possible way to rephrase the question: What will we measure in a situation where nothing can be measured? ;-) | |
| Jul 7, 2023 at 17:15 | comment | added | trula | The same problem: You think of a mathematical (or other) problem for some time. so in the middle of your "thinking time " I stop the time. Are you thinking or not, I repeat my stop time every second, would you think or not? | |
| Jul 7, 2023 at 16:03 | comment | added | PM 2Ring | I'm not quite sure what you're asking, but I suspect that it's similar to this question: physics.stackexchange.com/q/475703/123208 | |

| Jul 7, 2023 at 15:11 | comment | added | John Rennie | Are you asking how instantaneous velocity is defined? | |
| Jul 7, 2023 at 15:07 | comment | added | J. Murray | "If that somehow happens," then our current understanding of physics does not apply, so there's no way to answer your question. | |
