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.
What are five ways a force can change motion?
Accelerating an object by increasing its speed. Slowing down an object by reducing its speed. Changing the direction of an object's motion. Stopping an object from moving. Inducing rotation in an object.
What force can change a moving object?
A force such as friction, gravity, or a push/pull from another object can change the motion of a moving object by slowing it down, speeding it up, or changing its direction.
Does water resistance speed up moving objects?
Water resistance acts as a drag force on moving objects, slowing them down rather than speeding them up. The resistance depends on factors such as the shape and speed of the object moving through water.
How can an object be accelerating if it's slowing down?
Acceleration doesn't mean "speeding up". It only means that the speed or direction of motion, or both, are changing. Speeding up is positive acceleration in the direction you're moving. Slowing down is negative acceleration in the direction you're moving, or positive acceleration in the opposite direction.

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.
When would acceleration be negative?
When a moving object is slowing down, i.e. its speed is decreasing.
What happens when there is no stop time for a moving object?
When there is no stop time for a moving object, it will continue to move indefinitely without slowing down or coming to a stop.
What force can change a moving object?
A force such as friction, gravity, or a push/pull from another object can change the motion of a moving object by slowing it down, speeding it up, or changing its direction.

What force slows moving objects?
Inertia is what slows down moving objects. 2nd Answer: Not even close . . . inertia would keep objects FROM slowing. Friction or running into another object will slow a moving object.
Explain why the slowing down of a moving object is considered to be a form of acceleration?
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).
Acceleration is negative if?
Acceleration is negative if the object is slowing down or moving in the opposite direction of the velocity vector.
What does mean the velocity remains constant?
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.
