Negative velocity usually means going in the opposite direction (i.e. reverse or backwards).
No. A negative slope means that the object is slowing down. If the object were not moving, then its velocity would be zero. The graph would be a straight horizontal line that just lays there on the time axis.
Acceleration
Yes, you can. Zero acceleration simply means there is no CHANGE in velocity. It doesn't mean there is no velocity.
The Physical quantity that the slope of velocity time graph show is:negative acceleration otherwise retardation.If the velocity of the body is decreasing then the body is said to have negative acceleration (-ve) or retardation.u>v
It's the change in velocity, the rate of change (derivative) which is instantaneous velocity. Acceleration can be positive or negative, meaning increased or decreased velocity respectively.
That an object is losing speed. It is experiencing negative acceleration.
If acceleration is negative the graph looks like a upside U and decreases in value as time continues If acceleration is constant the graph is a straight line (linear) at 0 or whatever the velocity is
velocity is nothing but speed of a body in the given direction. suppose if body is moving with constant velocity then VT graph will be parallel to the X -axis, if not then the VT graph is not parallel to the X-axis it means then object is moving with different velocity or it has its dierection or both velocity and aswell as direction.
velocity
no
No. A negative slope means that the object is slowing down. If the object were not moving, then its velocity would be zero. The graph would be a straight horizontal line that just lays there on the time axis.
Acceleration
Yes, you can. Zero acceleration simply means there is no CHANGE in velocity. It doesn't mean there is no velocity.
Time is plotted on the X-axis. Speed or velocity is plotted on the Y-axis. A straight horizontal line on a speed-time graph means that speed is constant. It is not changing over time. A straight line does not mean that the object is not moving!
horizontal
It means acceleration.
Velocity is defined by physicists as both speed and direction, that is to say, if you are moving at 30 feet per second in a northerly direction, that is a velocity. Acceleration means a change in velocity. Physicists consider speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction all to be forms of acceleration; in more everyday usage, acceleration us used to mean speeding up and deceleration means slowing down. So, if your speed increases from 30 feet per second to 40 feet per second, that is acceleration.
