Which statement is true according to newton's second law of motion? a. an object accelerates in the direction opposite to the direction of the force applied. b. an object accelerates in the direction perpendicular to the direction of the force applied. c. an object accelerates in the same direction as that of the force applied. d. an object undergoes no acceleration on the application of force. e. an object’s acceleration is independent to the force applied.

C. An object accelerates in the same direction as that of the force applied.

Explanation:

 An object accelerates in the same direction as that of the force applied.

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 Force=m·Acceleration .  Written like that, it says that Force and Acceleration are vectors, and both sides of the vector equation have the same direction, so the vectors Force and Acceleration both have the same direction.

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
