The correct option is downward direction

Explanation:

  • If a dam is designed in such a way that its vertical acceleration is acting downwards, then the foundation will also move in the downward direction. This will be opposite from the dam body.

  • As a result, the weight of the dam will not be balanced and also its stability will be reduced.

  • While making a dam, this is the worst production plan for a dam.
