because acceleration is speed over time
When you are slowing down, your acceleration is negative. This is because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and when you are slowing down, your velocity is decreasing. A negative acceleration indicates a decrease in velocity in the given direction.
No, if a car is slowing down, its acceleration is negative. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity, so if the car's velocity is decreasing, its acceleration is in the opposite direction.
A negative acceleration indicates that an object is slowing down. It means that the velocity of the object is decreasing over time.
Deceleration. Slowing down can also be expressed by quoting a minus number for the amount of acceleration, e.g. -5m/s.
Deceleration refers to the decrease in speed or slowing down of an object over time. It is the opposite of acceleration, which involves an increase in speed.

Deceleration
Positive acceleration = speeding up. Negative acceleration = slowing down.
Acceleration is the change of velocity, with direction. Therefore slowing down is a change in veolcity, so is considered to be acceleration (just negative acceleration).
A negative acceleration indicates that an object is slowing down. It means that the velocity of the object is decreasing over time.
Acceleration is any change in velocity. Slowing down is a negative acceleration.
Deceleration. Slowing down can also be expressed by quoting a minus number for the amount of acceleration, e.g. -5m/s.
no, deceleration.
Deceleration refers to the decrease in speed or slowing down of an object over time. It is the opposite of acceleration, which involves an increase in speed.
Negative acceleration, also known as deceleration.
Positive is speeding up and negative is slowing down
