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

Physics
1 answer:
Licemer1 [7]4 years ago

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.

The Hoover dam is a hydroelectric power plant that converts the energy of falling water into electricity. Which of the following
vlabodo [156]

The correct answer to the question is : B) The weight of the water, and C) The height of the water.

EXPLANATION :

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand potential energy of a body.

The potential energy of a body due to its position from ground is known as gravitational potential energy.

The gravitational potential energy is calculated as -

                      Potential energy P.E = mgh

 Here, m is the mass of the body, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

h stands for the height of the body from the ground.

We know that weight of a body is equal to the product of mass with acceleration due to gravity.

Hence, weight W = mg

Hence, potential energy is written as P.E = weight × height.

Hence, potential energy depends on the weight and height of the water.

When a car climbs a hill, it has only potential energy<br> True or false ​
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

On the way back up the hill, the car converts kinetic energy to potential energy. In the absence of friction, the car should end up at the same height as it started. ... The total energy of the ball stays the same but is continuously exchanged between kinetic and potential forms.

Explanation:

hope it helps :D
