Positive velocity refers to an object moving in the positive direction along its path. It indicates that the object is moving forward or in the direction of increasing position. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both magnitude (speed) and direction.
The rate of change in velocity is known as acceleration.
Acceleration is positive when an object is speeding up in the positive direction (e.g., increasing velocity), and negative when the object is slowing down in the positive direction or moving in the negative direction (e.g., decreasing velocity). The sign of acceleration depends on the direction of the change in velocity relative to the direction of motion.

Acceleration.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. Acceleration can be positive (speeding up), negative (slowing down), or zero (constant velocity). Acceleration is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction.
A body's acceleration is positive when its velocity is increasing over time. This can happen when the body is speeding up in the same direction as its velocity, or when it is slowing down in the opposite direction of its velocity. Both scenarios result in a positive acceleration value.
Changes.
Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes over time. It can be positive (speeding up), negative (slowing down), or zero (constant velocity).

For a car's speed to increase and have a positive acceleration, the car's velocity needs to be increasing in the same direction as its acceleration. This means that the car is speeding up. When the velocity and acceleration have the same sign (both positive or both negative), the car's speed will increase.
When an object's velocity remains constant, it means the speed and direction of the object's motion do not change. This implies that the object is moving at a consistent rate without speeding up, slowing down, or changing course.
