When a body is moving upwards, the force of gravity is acting
Upwards
Downwards
Horizontal direction
Between horizontal and upwards direction
Hence, the force of gravity is acting downwards.
Thus, option (B) is the correct option.
A body of mass 500 g is thrown vertically upwards with an initial speed of 20 m s-1. What is the magnitude and direction of force due to gravity acting on the body when it is at highest point? [g = 9.8 m s-2].
A gas-filled balloon moves up. Is the upward force acting on it larger or smaller than the force of gravity?
