Does acceleration have a negative or positive value if the velocity is increasing speed?
In this case, acceleration is positive. Negative acceleration would cause the object to slow down (decelerate.)
What is a force that cause an object move in circle?
A force that could cause a object to move in a circle would be centripetal force. That is a product of mass and centripetal acceleration. It is quite a bit complicated.
An object accelerates at 3 meters per second when a 10 newton force is applied to it What force would cause this object to accelerate at 6 meters per second?
A 20-newton force would cause acceleration at 6 m/sec The acceleration is given by the formula F=ma (Force = mass x acceleration) so for the same mass, doubling the force doubles the acceleration for the same mass.
What would happen if you doubled the force acting on a moving object?
If you doubled the force on a moving object you would double its acceleration.
How would you define acceleration due to gravity?
That means that the acceleration of an object is caused by the force of gravity acting on the object.
Does acceleration have a negative or positive value if the velocity is increasing speed?
In this case, acceleration is positive. Negative acceleration would cause the object to slow down (decelerate.)
If the mass of an object is doubled what happens to the acceleration of that object?
It would depend on what force is driving the acceleration. If that force is gravity, then acceleration is constant irrespective of variations in mass. All else being equal and presuming the acceleration is by the same exerted force on both the larger and smaller object, the larger object would experience 1/3 the acceleration. (The formula for determining the force is F = ma , the mass times the acceleration. For the same F, and m2 is 3m, then a2 must equal a/3. )
What is a force that cause an object move in circle?
A force that could cause a object to move in a circle would be centripetal force. That is a product of mass and centripetal acceleration. It is quite a bit complicated.
What is the acceleration of an object if the net force working on the object is zero?
The acceleration would also be zero in this case.
If you throw an object towards the ground would it acceleration be greater or less thatn an object free falling?
Both objects would eventually reach terminal velocity which means they would both fall at the same speed.- But - compared to the falling object, the downward acceleration of a thrown object is the same.

A 20-newton force would cause acceleration at 6 m/sec The acceleration is given by the formula F=ma (Force = mass x acceleration) so for the same mass, doubling the force doubles the acceleration for the same mass.

If you doubled the force on a moving object you would double its acceleration.
How would you define acceleration due to gravity?
That means that the acceleration of an object is caused by the force of gravity acting on the object.
What agents would cause a change in centripetal acceleration?
Centripetal Acceleration is the ratio of the square of the velocity and radius ac=v2/r So if we change the velocity of the circulating object or change the radius of the revolution, centripetal acceleration is changed
What would happen if you increase the mass of an object?
Since the force of gravity is directly proportional to mass, then increasing the mass of an object increases the force of gravity it produces.Since accceleration = force/mass, then increasing the mass of an object means it will have a smaller acceleration for the same force (or alternatively that you need more force to produce the same acceleration).
If an object is not moving is the net force working on it zero?
That is correct. Any non-zero force would cause an acceleration (change of velocity).
What would you not use to find the acceleration of an object?
weight
