The speed of a car moving on a straight road is decreasing on applying the brakes its velocity and acceleration are in same direction?
By convention, yes, but the acceleration is negative
What is an example of acceleration in direction of motion?
moving forward continuesly
How do you calcuclate the acceleration of a moving obect?
how do you calculate the acceleration of a moving object.
Can object have zero acceleration and nonzero velocity at the same time.give example?
Yes, for example, a car moving at constant speed.
What is a real life example of acceleration?
You have acceleration any time a velocity changes - like when an object falls down due to gravity, when a car starts or stops, when you start moving or stop moving, etc.

Can a moving body have velocity and acceleration in opposite directions explain with in example?
Of course. A car with brakes applied and slowing down has forward velocity and rearward acceleration.

What is the negative acceleration?
Negative acceleration is the state of a body whose velocity in a specified direction is becoming smaller. If you apply the brakes while driving a car, the car (and you) will undergo negative acceleration in the direction in which the car was moving.
What is an example of Circular acceleration?
a satellite in orbit; it is moving at constant speed but is accelerating outward in circular acceleration, balanced by gravity acceleration (centripetal force).

What is an non example of acceleration?
The colour green is a non example of acceleration.
When a car stops the brakes heat up because of friction what is this an example of?
Conservation of energy. The energy from the moving car is transformed into heat by the action of the brakes.
