Moving in the positive direction at an increasing speed. (Accelerating positively)
This is a moving object that is slowing down.
A Vector, as it has direction and speed.
A moving object with velocity and acceleration vectors in the same direction is accelerating in the direction of its motion. This means that its speed is increasing as it moves in a straight line.
The acceleration of an object is indicated by a change in its velocity over time. If an object is speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction, it is experiencing acceleration. Acceleration is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction.
Acceleration determines the direction of velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes speed and direction, while acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. If an object is accelerating, its velocity is changing, which means its direction is also changing.
A change in velocity can be an acceleration when the speed or direction of an object changes. If an object speeds up, slows down, or changes its direction, then it is experiencing acceleration. Acceleration is a vector quantity that includes changes in both speed and direction.
Velocity and acceleration are both vectors because they have both magnitude and direction. Velocity is the rate of change of an object's position, while acceleration is the rate of change of an object's velocity. The direction of the velocity vector indicates the direction in which the object is moving, while the direction of the acceleration vector indicates the direction in which the velocity is changing.
The velocity vector of an object that is speeding up to the right points in the same direction, to the right. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both magnitude (speed) and direction, so as the object accelerates, the velocity vector will align with the direction of motion.
An object with a constant acceleration and velocity in the same direction will have both vectors pointing in the same direction. This occurs when an object is moving in a straight line with a constant speed while its velocity is also increasing at a constant rate.
If the acceleration vector is parallel to the velocity vector, the speed of the object will either remain constant or increase at a constant rate, depending on the direction of the acceleration. There will be no change in the direction of the velocity. This scenario is often seen in situations of uniform circular motion.
Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity. (Velocity is speed+direction, it is a vector as well as acceleration). F=ma, where a is in ms^(-2).
Acceleration is negative if the object is slowing down or moving in the opposite direction of the velocity vector.
