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.
What is slow moving river of ice definition?
A slow moving river of ice is known as a glacier. Glaciers are large bodies of ice formed by the accumulation and compaction of snow over long periods of time. They flow under their own weight due to the force of gravity.
What de you call a slow-moving mass of ice on a mountain?
Depending on when it was formed, the size and speed it is moving it could be either an Avalanche or Glacier. If it is an incredibly old, slow moving, large, ice mass it is likely a Glacier; however if it is a quickly moving, small (relatively), ice mass it is an Avalanche.
What is an ice mass formed from years of accumulated snow that may be moving slowly?
A glacier is an ice mass formed from years of accumulated snow that may be moving slowly.
What do you a call a mass slow-moving ice is called?
glacier
What is the physics aspect of a basketball slowing down a moving body?
cross them
What is the purpose of the braking system?
It is used for slowing or stopping a moving vehicle.
What is the purpose of the brakeing system?
It is used for slowing or stopping a moving vehicle.
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 is friction useful when ice skating?
for slowing down, stopping etc
How does the elevator's acceleration change when it is moving downward?
When an elevator is moving downward, its acceleration changes to be negative, meaning it is slowing down.
When a glacier is retreating does the upstream ice is still moving forward toward the downstream terminus of the glacier?
Yes, even when a glacier is retreating, the ice in the upstream region is still moving slowly forward towards the downstream terminus. This movement is due to the constant flow of ice within the glacier caused by gravity and pressure.
Why does a magnet fall slower in a copper pipe?
A magnet falls slower in a copper pipe because the magnetic field generated by the moving magnet induces an electric current in the copper pipe, creating a magnetic field that opposes the magnet's motion, causing resistance and slowing it down.
When would acceleration be negative?
When a moving object is slowing down, i.e. its speed is decreasing.
What does a moving magnectic field produce?
A moving magnetic field produces current
What make ice?
water particles slowing down to the point were they bond together and harden
What is the direction of acceleration in a moving car?
The direction of acceleration in a moving car is in the direction of the change in velocity, either speeding up or slowing down.
