negative


Why can velocity be negative or positive?

Yes, "velocity" is a vector so it not only has magnitude but also direction. By convention, an object moving from left-to-right or upward is moving in a positive direction while an object moving right-to-left or downward is moving in a negative direction. "Speed" is a related term but it is a scalar. As such, it has only magnitude. A speed cannot be negative.


True or false Negative acceleration always means that a system is slowing down?

false A car can have a negative acceleration and be speeding up. A negative acceleration determines the direction of the acceleration A car with forward acceleration will speed up in the forward direction A car moving forward with a negative acceleration will slow down A car not moving with a negative acceleration will speed up in the backward direction A car moving backward with a negative acceleration will speed up in the backward direction


Can acceleration ever be negative?

Acceleration is negative when the object is moving in the opposite direction. on a graph the line would be in the negative quadrant.


When electrons are moving from negative pole to positive pole in the circuit then current in the circuit will be moving in which direction?

always current flow from the opposite direction of electron


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).


Can a speed of a body be negative?

The 'speed' of a body cannot be negative. But if you are stating the 'velocity' then it can be negative. Negative velocity means it is going opposite to the direction that you decided to call the positive direction.


Is it possible for the instataneous velocity to have been negative at any time in the interval suppose the particle started at the origin x 0?

Yes. Since velocity is a vector it can have negative values when the object is moving in the direction opposite to the direction defined as the positive direction. For example, if an object is thrown vertically upwards and the upward direction is considered the positive direction, then when the object is falling downwards under gravity, its velocity is negative (in the upward direction). Coversely, if the downward direction is defined as the positive direction, then the object has a negative velocity during the first stage of the trajectory.


Is current the moving of negative electons?

True - but the "assumed direction" is opposite to reality.


What is 'waving' considered as?

Waving, which involves moving your hand in a particular direction is considered as a form of communication to signify or express a greeting or direction.


What is the physical meaning of a negative average velocity?

It means that an object with a negative average velocity is moving in the opposite direction (of course according to the chosen positive direction of the predefined frame).
