Consider the free-body diagram. based on the net forces illustrated here, what can you say about the acceleration of the object? the object is accelerating in an upward direction. the object is accelerating down. the acceleration equals 0.the object is moving at a constant speed.

The object is accelerating in the downward direction.

Explanation: In the given block diagram, there are 4 forces acting on the object.

We know that,

The object moves in the direction of the net force and here, the net force is acting in the downward direction.

And, F = ma

Acceleration will be in the direction of the force only. Hence, the object will be accelerating in the downward direction.

answer: that would be cheating

explanation:

c. live where it’s cold and icy
