Explanation:

Objects at rest and in motion respond to the presence of an external unbalanced force by simple changing their magnitude of motion or position.

We have this knowledge from Newtons first law of motion "a body will remain in a state of rest or continue with uniform motion unless if it is acted upon by an external force".

When an external force acts on a body at rest, it will change the position of the body or set it motion.
For a body in motion, an external force can make they come to rest or change the motion of the body

Which is not an example of a scalar?

Crank

Answer:

b) 2ft/s

Explanation:

A scalar has only magintude, not direction

6.2m, 3kg, and -100 o C are all scalars because they only have magnitude.

2ft/s is not a scalar because it has a direction.

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnitude of the acceleration in the x direction is always zero: TRUE.

At the apex, in the y direction the velocity is zero and the accelration is positive. TRUE.

At the apex, in the x direction, the velocity is zero and the acceleration is zero. FALSE. The accelration is zero, but the velocity is the same it had when it was shot.

The magnitude of the velocity in the y direction is always constant. FALSE, it's subject to gravity and it's velocity varies as $v=v_0 - 9.81ms^{-2} t$

At the apex, in the Y direction, the velocity is negative and the acceleration is zero. FALSE. Velocity is zero, Acceleration is $9.81 ms^{-2}$ , towards the negative y axis
