Answer: D) directed downward.

Explanation:

We know that the constant acceleration of 9.87ms^{-2} of every-thing is always DIRECT DOWNWARDS because of the to the influence of the gravity of the Earth.

This motion is denoted as free fall motion , where the acceleration due to the gravity is constant 9.87ms^{-2}.

∴ A ball tossed vertically upward rises, reaches its highest point, and then falls back to its starting point. During this time the acceleration of the ball is always  directed downward.

Hence, the correct answer is D) directed downward..

densk [106]

Here when car in front of us applied brakes then it is slowing down due to frictional force on it

So here we can say that friction force on the car front of our car is given as

F_f = \mu m g

So the acceleration of car due to friction is given as

F_{net} = - \mu mg

a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}

a = -\mu g

now it is given that

\mu = 0.868

g = 9.81 m/s^2

so here we have

a = -0.868 * 9.81

a = -8.52 m/s^2

so the car will accelerate due to brakes by a = - 8.52 m/s^2
