Rather, a car stoppping at a light is an example of deceleration but one of the possible example of acceleration when a car stops at a traffic light is a pedestrian accelerating across the road or other car in different lanes accelerating to move to on in their journey.

How are constant speed and constant acceleration different?

There is a huge difference between constant speed and constant acceleration. Constant speed is when the object is travelling constant, no change in its velocity and acceleration or in other words no extra force to speed up. Constant acceleration when the object is acceleration constant, it means that the speed of the object is change at the same rate each second. The acceleration rate at which the object is travelling is constant. for example, when a car is stationary at a traffic light and it starts acceleration, picking up speed but the rate of acceleration will not constant because the amount of force applied differs each second due to the acceleration rate.


How traffic signals use photoelectric effect?

The photoelectric effect occurs when electrons are emitted after they absorb light. This helps traffic lights function and shine more brightly.
