Which is also called as retardation or deceleration?
Deceleration is a special case of what physicists call "acceleration" - a rate of change of velocity.
What is a negative acceleration called?
You'll find a lot of people who call it "deceleration". But in real Physics, there's no such thing.There's only positive or negative acceleration, depending on whether the acceleration is inthe same or opposite direction compared to what you decided to call the positive direction.Negative acceleration is sometimes, but not always, associated with something that's slowing down.
An increase of speed during a given interval of time is called?
The shift of velocity per unit of given time is called acceleration. The types of acceleration are negative acceleration and positive acceleration.
Does negative acceleration have constant acceleration?
Not necessarily so. Negative (deceleration) could be growing or decreasing in magnitude. The cause is going to be the Force that is acting on the system. If the Force is increasing, the acceleration will be also.
An increase of speed during a given interval of time is called negative acceleration?
No, it's only the acceleration. By (-)ve acceleration ,it means retardation or deceleration..
What is called when an object's speed decreases?
car negative acceleration, also deceleration
Can there be a positive acceleration and a negative acceleration?
Yes, acceleration can be positive and negative because acceleration is a vector. It has both direction and magnitude. The direction is what makes it positive or negative. Negative acceleration is usually called deceleration.
Which is also called as retardation or deceleration?
Deceleration is a special case of what physicists call "acceleration" - a rate of change of velocity.
What do you called the negative acceleration?
That is sometimes called deceleration. In physics, however, any change of velocity is simply called "acceleration".
A decrease in velocity is called what?
Negative acceleration, or deceleration.
What is called negative accelarration?
Deceleration. Negative acceleration = Velocity is decreasing by time. Positive acceleration = Velocity is increasing by time. Zero acceleration = Velocity is the same by time.

An object slowing down has what type of acceleration?
Negative acceleration, also known as deceleration.
An increase of speed during a given interval of time is called?
The shift of velocity per unit of given time is called acceleration. The types of acceleration are negative acceleration and positive acceleration.
What is positive negative and zero acceleration is?
positive acceleration is when things speed up; negative acceleration is when things slow down; and zero acceleration is when things do not speed up or slow down, this is called constant speed, or no change in velocity.
Does negative acceleration have constant acceleration?
Not necessarily so. Negative (deceleration) could be growing or decreasing in magnitude. The cause is going to be the Force that is acting on the system. If the Force is increasing, the acceleration will be also.
Can a car have negative velocity and negative acceleration?
It cannot have negative velocity, it can have negative acceleration.
