I'm trying to understand the direction of gravity. Specifically, I want to know if gravity is considered positive when it's pulling something upwards or downwards.

This is because gravity pulls objects towards the earth's center, accelerating them downwards.

Conversely, if an object is moving upwards, 'g' becomes negative.

This is because the object is moving in the opposite direction of gravitational acceleration.

The value of 'g' determines the direction of gravitational acceleration.

When an object is stationary or moving downwards, 'g' is positive.
