Answer:

In vector form , if angle between velocity vector and acceleration vector is less than 90° and greater than 0° then it is positive acceleration and if it is less than 180° and greater than 90° then it is negative acceleration. If there is no acceleration vector then it is called zero acceleration

Answer:

The acceleration is positive when it's in the same direction as that of velocity. It keeps on increasing the velocity. In this case, velocity is not constant.

The acceleration is negative when it is in the direction opposite to that of velocity. It keeps on decreasing the speed of body.

The acceleration is zero when the body moves with a constant velocity in any particular direction.

Sand falls from an overhead bin and accumulates in a conical pile with a radius that is always threethree times its height. Supp

hammer [34]

Answer:

159241.048 cm³/s

Explanation:

r = Radius = 3×height = 3h

h = height = 16 cm

Height of the pile increases at a rate = $\frac{dh}{dt}=22\ cm/s$

$\text{Volume of cone}=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\\Rightarrow V=\frac{1}{3}\pi (3h)^2h\\\Rightarrow V=3\pi h^3$

Differentiating with respect to time

$\frac{dv}{dt}=9\pi h^2\frac{dh}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \frac{dv}{dt}=9\pi 16^2\times 22\\\Rightarrow \frac{dv}{dt}=159241.048\ cm^3/s$

∴ Rate is the sand leaving the bin at that instant is 159241.048 cm³/s

Serga [27]

Potential energy does.

A book on the floor has negative potential energy relative to the seat
of your chair, zero potential energy relative to the floor, and a whole
bunch of positive potential energy relative to the ground if the floor
is the floor of the passenger jet in which you are cruising and dropped
