I believe it is positive.
Answer: d
Explanation:
For an object to move in a uniform circular motion, only force that acts on it is the centripetal force which acts along the line joining the object and center of the circular path. The acceleration also acts in the direction of force. The centripetal acceleration acts along the radius of the circular motion path.
In the given horizontal circle, the direction of the acceleration of the object points towards d.
No, it will not fall. The pencil will remain at zero speed relative to the spacecraft and will orbit the earth with the spacecraft.
<span>a 205 kg mass object will weight 1143.43 lbs on Jupiter.
Looking up the surface gravity of Jupiter, you can find that it's 2.53 times that of earth. So the 205 kg object will weigh
205 * 2.53 = 518.65 kg on Jupiter.
Now we need to convert from kg to pounds. This is done by multiplying by 2.20462
518.65 kg * 2.20462 lb/kg = 1143.43 lb</span>
