What is a moving object that has a velocity vector and acceleration vector in the opposite direction?
This is a moving object that is slowing down.
When acceleration and velocity vectors are pointing in opposite directions?
The moving object is slowing down.
A negative slope on the velocity vs time graph indicates that the object is not moving?
False. It means it is slowing Down!
A negative slope on the velocity vs. time graph indicates that the object is not moving?
False. It means it is slowing Down!
A negative slope on the velocity vs. time graph indicates that the object is not moving.?
False. It means it is slowing Down!
What is a moving object that has a velocity vector and acceleration vector in the opposite direction?
This is a moving object that is slowing down.
When would acceleration be negative?
When a moving object is slowing down, i.e. its speed is decreasing.
When acceleration and velocity vectors are pointing in opposite directions?
The moving object is slowing down.
How can an object slowing down have an acceleration that's not negative?
If the positive direction was defined at the outset as the direction opposite to the direction in which the object happens to be moving just now, and the object is slowing down, then the acceleration is positive because, algebraically, the object's speed is increasing in the positive direction.
A negative slope on the velocity vs time graph indicates that the object is not moving?
False. It means it is slowing Down!
A negative slope on the velocity vs. time graph indicates that the object is not moving.?
False. It means it is slowing Down!
A negative slope on the velocity vs. time graph indicates that the object is not moving?
False. It means it is slowing Down!
What are 5 ways an object can accelerate?
don't know, only three though
What force slows moving objects?
Inertia is what slows down moving objects. 2nd Answer: Not even close . . . inertia would keep objects FROM slowing. Friction or running into another object will slow a moving object.
What is the direction of the acceleration of an object that is slowing down while heading northward?
The acceleration is opposite the direction the object is moving, so the acceleration is negative and southward.
Explain why the slowing down of a moving object is considered to be a form of acceleration?
Acceleration is the change of velocity, with direction. Therefore slowing down is a change in veolcity, so is considered to be acceleration (just negative acceleration).
When an object is slowing down it is not at what?
It is not at rest.
