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..

A copper rod of length 27.5 m has its temperature increases by 35.9 degrees celsius. how much does its length increase?(unit=m)
gavmur [86]
<h2>The increase in length = 1.87 x 10⁻²</h2>

Explanation:

When copper rod is heated , its length increases

The increase in length can be found by the relation

L = L₀ ( 1 + α ΔT )

here L is the increased length and L₀ is the original length

α  is the coefficient of linear expansion and ΔT is the increase in temperature .

The increase in length = L - L₀ = L₀ x α ΔT

Substituting all these value

Increase in length = 27.5 x 1.7 x 10⁻⁵ x 35.9

= 1.87 x 10⁻² m

When a cannon is fired, how does the size of the force of the cannon on the cannonball compared with the force of the cannonball
kati45 [8]
The force applied to the cannonball and cannon is equal. The explosion inside the cannon will generate a pressure which will turn into a force on both cannonball and cannon. The cannon being heavier and fixed to the ground will move a bit, but the cannonball will be thrown away, fired.
