Answer:

A. Positive, positive

Explanation:

As we defined the ground is the origin, as long as the rock is above the ground, its position would always be positive.

As for velocity, as long as the rock is moving upwards, its direction is also upward, so its velocity is always positive. The velocity will become negative when the rock falls down.

The mass of an object on earth is 20 kg what will be the mass of that object on moon? And why? ​
Alla [95]

Answer:

20kg

Explanation:

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. The mass of an object, the amount of matter inside it does not change based on location. E.g. Objects do not lose matter when they travel to the moon.

Weight, on the other hand is the downward force you exert on the ground. Weight is calculated by multiplying the mass by the gravitational field strength and changes in different places with different gravitational strength. E.g. The moon's gravitational strength is 1/5 of Earth's so the mass of the object would stay the same but the weight would be only 20% of the weight is had on earth.

Hope this helped!

Direct current, DC, flows in a _________ direction while alternating current, AC, the direction of flow ___________. A) single,
kramer
The flow of Direct current (DC) is constant and flows in one direction. Most digital electronics make use of DC. Alternating current (AC) periodically flows in reverse and is mostly used to deliver power to houses, buildings and the like. With that alone, you can already rule out A, C and D. 

The answer would then be B. constant, periodically reversing.

A 3.8 kg object is lifted 12 meters. approximately how much work is performed during the lifting.
Dmitry [639]

work done=446.9 J . so option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

the formula for work done is given by

W= F d

F= force= mg where m= mass and g= acceleration due to gravity

F= 3.8 (9.8)=37.24 J

so W=37.24 (12)

W=446.9 J
