Answer:
b) downward. Correct choice
Explanation:
Projectile Motion
It's known as the type of motion that experiences an object that is projected near the Earth's surface and moves along a curved path exclusively under the action of gravity.
The gravity manifests through the acceleration of gravity g whose value is [tex]9.8 m/s^2[/tex] and points downward. The object will eventually fall to the ground at a time and speed which depends on the initial speed and launch angle.
When the bullet is fired regardless of the initial speed and angle, the only acceleration of the system is g, thus:
b) downward. Correct choice
The acceleration acts on the bullet will be the acceleration due to gravity that is g and has a downward direction.
Since the bullet is fired at an angle of 45 so the bullet will travel in a projectile. So every point in time the acceleration due to gravity will act on the bullet.
After some point in time, the bullet will come to the surface of the earth as the energy in the bullet will reduce.
As we know that anything present on the earth is under the influence of the earth's gravity.
So the fired bullet will experience acceleration due to the gravity of the earth and the direction of the acceleration will always be downwards.
So the bullet will eventually fall to the ground at a time and speed which depends on the initial speed and launch angle.
Thus the acceleration acts on the bullet will be the acceleration due to gravity that is g and has a downward direction.
