Its velocity decreases because gravity is pulling on it as it goes up. Its acceleration increases.

In the paper throwing activity what motion did you observe when tossing the paper in the trash can?

I observed projectile motion when tossing the paper in the trash can. The paper moved in a curved path due to gravity, with an initial velocity that influenced both its horizontal and vertical components. It followed a parabolic trajectory before landing in the trash can.


What is the example of acceleration is against the direction of motion?

-- putting the brakes on, in order to slow the car down; -- lifting the spoilers on the airplane wing, in order to reduce airspeed OR stop on the runway; -- firing rockets forward in the direction the Space Shuttle is moving, in order to reduce velocity and drop out of orbit; -- tossing a rock or a ball straight up in the air; the acceleration of gravity is downward, so the ball slows down and stops, before it starts falling; -- Just before the rock hits the ground, it has some speed. When it hits the ground, it feels a large acceleration UPWARD against its motion, and a split second later, its speed is zero.


Who tossed the piece with a kinetic energy of 432 J?

The person who tossed the piece with a kinetic energy of 432 J would have imparted that energy to the object through their physical action. The kinetic energy of an object is determined by its mass and velocity, so the person tossing the piece would have had to give it enough speed and force to achieve that energy level.
