Want this question answered?
When an object slows down it is still accelerating.
The acceleration is multiplied by four. a = F/m
No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
No. The definition of acceleration is the change in an object's velocity over time. Acceleration must then be zero since velocity remains constant.
Since acceleration involves a change in velocity, and object might be accelerating even though its speed is constant.

No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
No, since acceleration is defined as a change in velocity. If there is no change, there is no acceleration.
When the acceleration is constant then s= 1/2 at^2 and the acceleration is a=2s/t^2.
The acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force acting on it. So if the force is reduced by half, the acceleration will also be halved. Of course, it will still be accelerating in the same direction as before, but not as quickly.

No. Acceleration is any change of velocity.But its speed can be constant.
An object with a constant (vector)velocity is not accelerating. An object with a constand (scalar)speed can actually be accelerating, a car with a constant speed that passes around a corner is changing direction and is subjected to a lateral acceleration.
Since acceleration involves a change in velocity, and object might be accelerating even though its speed is constant.
negative acceleration means that the object is accelerating in a negative direction. For instance, if an object is going at a certain velocity forward, but accelerating negatively, it would slow down and eventually start moving backwards. It's a bit of a strange concept, but I hope this helps
The equation is F = M A, where F is the Force required to stop the object, M is the object's Mass, and A is its Acceleration. Note that its acceleration in this case is the rate at which you are DE-ACCELERATING the object to stop it.
