Draw an arrow to indicate the direction of the acceleration of hic block for each of the four motions listed below.
To Draw:An arrow to indicate the direction of the acceleration of the block for each of the given four motion.
Answer to Problem 1aTH
The direction of acceleration is along the same direction to which the block speeds up.
Explanation of Solution
Direction of acceleration depends on the direction along which the block speeds up.
Here, a is the acceleration and its direction is along the direction along which the block speeds up. Red arrow indicates the direction of motion of the block.

- With the use of a phase shift, the position of an object may be modeled as a cosine or sine function. If given the option, which function would you choose? Assuming that the phase shift is zero, what are the initial conditions of function; that is, the initial position, velocity, and acceleration, when using a sine function? How about when a cosine function is used?arrow_forwardPlease good handwriting and clear ideas explaining the process! 4C Solve the highlighted question , if possible help me with the rest!arrow_forwardSuppose that an object attached to a coiled spring is pulled down a distance of 5 inches from its rest position and then released.
