How do I figure out if the acceleration is negative, positive or zero ?

Physics

Use acceleration = Final Velocity - Initial Velocity.  So for the first one:
1.6m/s - 3.6m/s = -2.6m/s.  This means the velocity changed by a negative amount so the acceleration is negative.

What is energy? Where does it come from? What does it do? Explain in 5 or more sentences please! :)
Vlada [557]

Answer:

Energy is defined as the ability to do work. Forms of energy could be kinetic energy or potential energy. Thermal or heat energy can originate from a hot object such as the sun. Energy is used to produce work. Electrical energy for lighting purposes and heating in homes and factories.

Explanation:

Energy is defined as the ability to do work and can be in various forms such as kinetic energy, potential energy, thermal, chemical, electrical energy etc.

Energy origination depends on the type of energy form in discussion. Thermal or heat energy can originate from a hot object such as the sun or an iron box, chemical energy originates from the interaction of atoms and molecules and electrical energy can be initiated by movements of electrons.

Energy is used to produce work. Different forms of energy can do different tasks such as;

Heat energy for heating water

Electrical energy for lighting purposes

Geothermal energy for producing heat and electricity

Nuclear energy for production of nuclear power

Chemical energy for facilitating chemical reactions

Select ALL the correct answers. Two metal balls are dropped from the top of a two-story building at the same time. One ball is t
anastassius [24]
Statements 2 and 4 are correct. The velocity changes because the initial velocity is zero and each second they gain 9.8 m/s of velocity, which is the constant acceleration. Because there is no air resistance, they will land at the same time, and gravity acts equally upon both objects, so the velocity of both metal balls should always be the same.
