Question 1(iv)

What is ratio of force acting on a body while going upwards and downwards under the influence of earth's gravity?

  1. 2
  2. -1
  3. 1
  4. -2
Answer

-1

Reason — Acceleration of the body while going down = g

Acceleration of the body while going up = - g

Hence, ratio of acceleration due to gravity upwards and downwards = −gg\dfrac{-g}{g} = -1
