Is retardation positive or negative acceleration?
Retardation or deceleration is negative acceleration. It is opposite to the direction of velocity.
Does acceleration have a negative or positive value if the velocity is increasing speed?
In this case, acceleration is positive. Negative acceleration would cause the object to slow down (decelerate.)
How can an object have a neutral charge if part of the object has a positive and a negative charge?
If an object has both positive and negative charges in different regions, it can still have an overall neutral charge if the total amount of positive charge is equal to the total amount of negative charge. This results in a cancellation of the charges, making the object neutral overall.
What is positive and negative acceleration?
Positive acceleration occurs when an object's velocity is increasing over time, while negative acceleration (or deceleration) happens when an object's velocity is decreasing over time. Positive acceleration can be due to speeding up, turning, or changing direction, while negative acceleration is typically caused by slowing down or stopping.
How is a negative acceleration different from a positive acceleration?
A negative acceleration refers to a decrease in velocity, while a positive acceleration refers to an increase in velocity. Negative acceleration occurs when the speed of an object is decreasing, such as when it is slowing down. Positive acceleration occurs when the speed of an object is increasing, such as when it is speeding up.

What three charges can an object have?
positive, negative, and neutral
What MUST be true about an object's acceleration as it is traveling in the positive direction and slowing down?
The object's acceleration must be in the negative direction, opposing its velocity in the positive direction. This negative acceleration is also known as deceleration and causes the object to slow down.
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 do you call to the object that has an equal numbers of positive and negative charge?
An object that has equal numbers of positive and negative charges is called electrically neutral. This means that the overall charge of the object is zero, as the positive and negative charges cancel each other out. Examples include a neutral atom or a neutral molecule.
What does a positive and neutral object do?
A positive object is attracted to negative objects and repelled by other positive objects. A neutral object does not attract or repel other objects based on their charge.
If velocity is positive which would most likely yield a negative acceleration?
If an object is moving in the positive direction, a negative acceleration would most likely occur if the object is slowing down, such as when it is decelerating or coming to a stop. Negative acceleration indicates that the object's velocity is decreasing over time.
Where there is an equal amount of positive and negative charges on an object the object is?
Electrically neutral
