∙ 7y agoTrue. Both speed and acceleration are vector quantities, meaning they include both magnitude and direction in describing the motion of an object.
When it doesn't add up to zero, objects will experience acceleration in the direction of the resulting force. This acceleration will cause the motion of the objects to change in that direction according to Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it.
If objects are slowing down with time, the acceleration would be in the opposite direction of their motion. This would result in a negative acceleration, indicating deceleration or retardation.
Acceleration is the change in an ogjects speed or a change in an objects direction of motion or both of these. If instead of speed you use the word velocity , which is both an object's speed and its direction of motion, then you could say "acceleration is the change in an objects velocity" and that would cover all the possibilities in one statement.
Gravity affects motion by exerting a force that causes objects to accelerate towards the center of the Earth. This acceleration influences the direction of motion by pulling objects downward. As a result, gravity can cause objects to fall towards the ground or follow a curved path when in motion.
If an object is in motion, it means that it is changing its position in relation to a reference point. This movement can be described in terms of speed, direction, and acceleration. Objects in motion are subject to the laws of physics governing motion.
Yes! In most problems direction needs to be defined as either positive or negative.
I'm pretty sure its the acceleration. If its not that, its the Velocity.

The motion of an object can be described by its speed, direction, and acceleration. Speed refers to how fast an object is moving, direction indicates the path it is following, and acceleration describes any change in speed or direction over time. These characteristics together provide a complete description of an object's motion.
Acceleration can be in the opposite direction of motion, which is called deceleration. Acceleration can also be in the same direction as motion, causing an increase in speed. The direction of acceleration depends on the forces acting on the object.
The force that decreases the acceleration of two objects moving against each other is the force of friction. Friction acts in the opposite direction to the motion of the objects and reduces their acceleration by creating resistance.
Acceleration in motion refers to a change in speed or direction of that object's motion. So a type of motion in which speed and direction do not change is a motion in which the acceleration is constant (i.e. unchanging).
Balanced forces do not change the motion of an object; they keep the object at a constant velocity or at rest. When the forces are balanced, there is no acceleration or change in speed or direction.
