A. the direction the object is moving in will not change.

B. the acceleration of the object will be 0 m/s2

Explanation:

We can answer this problem by using Newton's second law of motion:

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force acting on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

In this problem, all the forces acting on the object are balanced, therefore the net force is zero:

\sum F=0

which means that also the acceleration is zero:

a=0

Acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity: therefore, zero acceleration means that the velocity of the object does not change. We can now analyze the given statements:

A. the direction the object is moving in will not change.  --> TRUE, because the velocity is not changing.

B. the acceleration of the object will be 0 m/s2  --> TRUE, as we stated above

c. the object will not be in motion.  --> FALSE: we just know that its velocity is constant, but it can be different from zero

D. the velocity of the object will be 0 m/s. --> FALSE, for the same reason stated in C

A ball is dropped from the top of a building.After 2 seconds, it’s velocity is measured to be 19.6 m/s. Calculate the accelerati
zlopas [31]

Answer:

acceleration, a = 9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

'A ball is dropped from the top of a building' indicates that the initial velocity of the ball is zero.

u = 0 m/s

After 2 seconds, velocity of the ball is 19.6 m/s.

t = 2s, v = 19.6 m/s

Using

v = u + at

19.6 = 0 + 2a

a = 9.8 m/s²
