Its all physics. Things speed up and slow down because of a force acting upon them.
Newton's second law of motion states that the force applied to an object is equal to its mass times acceleration, i.e. F = MA. As a result force causes a change in acceleration, which causes a change in velocity. This can be positive or negative, depending on which direction the force is acting.
positive acceleration is when things speed up; negative acceleration is when things slow down; and zero acceleration is when things do not speed up or slow down, this is called constant speed, or no change in velocity.
I think you mean slow down and speed up. slow down =slow, speed up=fast
slow down
speed you up
Heat would speed up the reaction, while cold would slow the reaction.
Speed up
Things that can speed up cell division include growth factors, hormones, and certain mutations. On the other hand, factors that can slow down cell division include DNA damage, nutrient deprivation, and cell cycle checkpoints.
Some different things that could speed/slow up/down a chemical reaction are: Temperature (If higher, molecules move faster, reactions speeds up) SPEED UP Temperature (If lower, molecules will move slower, reaction slower) SLOW DOWN CATALYST (A catalyst is anything that SPEEDS up a reaction without being consumed[running out of energy]) SPEED UP Concentration More substrates [reactants/puzzle pieces to enzymes faster reaction)SPEED UP Concentration (Less substrates- slower reaction) SLOW DOWN ...well, there you go... :)
Nothing happens to the forces. The forces are what makes the thing speed up or slow down.
slow up
true. Friction DOES slow things down. In fact, if there was no friction once something started moving it wouldn't be able to stop Friction can slow the things down. It's true.
