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.

A car with mass m traveling at speed v has kinetic energy k. what is the kinetic energy of a second car that has the same mass m
vampirchik [111]
Kinetic energy, KE, is modeled by the formula KE =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2, where m is the mass in kg and v is the velocity in m/s.

In this scenario, mass and one-half are constant but the velocity changes. 

You can see that by squaring twice the velocity, that is equal to four times the original KE. Therefore, the answer is 4k.

I need a short written description of Newton's three laws.
Tom [10]
Newton’s first law of motion, also called the law on inertia, states that an object continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion unless compelled to change that state by an external force.Newton’s second law of motion states that if a net force acts on an object, it will cause an acceleration of that object.Newton’s third law of motion<span> states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. hope this wasnt two long!</span>

A simple pendulum consisting of a bob of mass m attached to a string of length L swings with a period T. If the pendulum is take
Juli2301 [7.4K]

To solve this problem we will use the definition of the period in a simple pendulum, which warns that it is dependent on its length and gravity as follows:

T =2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Here,

L = Length

g = Acceleration due to gravity

We can realize that 2 \pi is a constant so it is proportional to the square root of its length over its gravity,

T \propto \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Since the body is in constant free fall, that is, a point where gravity tends to be zero:

g \rightarrow 0 \Rightarrow T \rightarrow \infty

The value of the period will tend to infinity. This indicates that the pendulum will no longer oscillate because both the pendulum and the point to which it is attached are in free fall.
