According to Newton's second law of motion, C. an object accelerates in the same direction as that of the force applied.

You don't see this when you see the 2nd law's formula written as Force=mass·Acceleration ... there doesn't seem to be any information about directions there.

The thing is that this is supposed to be a VECTOR equation, like <em>Force</em>=m·<em>Acceleration .</em>  Written like that, it says that <em>Force</em> and <em>Acceleration</em> are vectors, and both sides of the vector equation have the same direction, so the vectors <em>Force</em> and <em>Acceleration</em> both have the same direction.

An elevator of massmis initially at rest onthe first floor of a building. It moves upward,and passes the second and third floors
Varvara68 [4.7K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts of Work. Work is understood as the force applied to travel a determined distance, in this case the height. The force in turn can be expressed by Newton's second law as the ratio between mass and gravity, as well

W = mgh

Where,

m = mass

h = height

g = Gravitational constant

When it ascends to the second floor it has traveled the energy necessary to climb a height, under this logic, until the 4 floor has traveled 3 times the height h of each of the floors therefore

h = 3h

Replacing in our equation we have to

W = mgh\\W = mg(3h)\\W = 3mgh

The correct answer is 4.

Hydrogen fluoride gas (HF) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) react in a test tube. They form water and sodium fluoride (NaF). Which ty
solmaris [256]
The type of reaction that occurred in the test tube is ACID BASE REACTION.
Acid base reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which an acid and a base react together to form salt and water molecules. It is also known as neutralization reaction. For the question given above, the applicable chemical reaction is as follows:
HF + NaOH = NaF + H2O
 From this chemical reaction, it can be seen that, hydrogen fluoride, which is a weak acid react with sodium hydroxide which is a strong base to produce sodium fluoride, which is a salt and a molecule of water.
