This question is ill-formed. You do not specify which particle you mean, nor what you mean by negative x-direction.

Note that coordinate systems in physics are relative; they have no affect on physics, and can thus be chosen in any convient way. I could define your negative x-direction to be the positive x-direction if I wished to do so.

Why the particle is not moving toward negative x-direction?

The particle may not be moving towards the negative x-direction due to the presence of forces acting on it in the opposite direction, or because the initial velocity is in the positive x-direction. It could also be confined to move in a different direction due to external constraints or boundaries.


Can a position time graph have negative slope?

yes, if the speed is negative, that is, moving backward


What do you call on the free moving particle around the nucleus of an atom?

The electron moves in a cloud around the nucleus of the particle. Most atoms have several electrons occupying different energy levels and moving in differently shaped orbitals. The electron has a negative charge.


What is a fast moving electron given off by a nucleus during radioactive decay and has a negative chare?

its called a beta particle, but its an electron


Can instantaneous velocity be negative?

Yes. It can be negative. With regards to 1 dimensional motion, if it is negative it indicates that the object at that particular instant in time is moving towards smaller values of x.


What is the Lagrangian for a particle moving on a sphere?

The Lagrangian for a particle moving on a sphere is the kinetic energy minus the potential energy of the particle. It takes into account the particle's position and velocity on the sphere.


How do amoeba get food?

The amoeba moves its psuedopodia (false feet) around the food particle. thus a food vacuole is formed.then the amoeba secretes digestive enzymes into the food vacuole and the food particle is digested and assimilated.the waste particle is thrown out by moving the particle towards the surface of the body and it is excreted. :)


What is the decrease in magnitude velocity?

The decrease in magnitude velocity refers to the reduction in the speed of an object or particle. It indicates the change in the object's velocity moving towards a slower speed.


What will happen to the wavelength associated with a moving particle if its velocity is reduced to half?

If the velocity of a moving particle is reduced to half, the wavelength associated with it will remain the same. The wavelength of a particle is determined by its momentum, not its velocity.


When a particle is not moving what type of energy does it have?

When a particle is not moving, it still has potential energy due to its position in a force field. This potential energy can be gravitational, elastic, or related to other forces acting on the particle.


Which subatomic particle is responsibe for electricity?

Electricity can flow due to the movement of ANY charged particle. A current in metals is due to the movement of electrons, and this is the most common case for a current. However, a current can also be carried by holes, by positive or negative ions, etc.


What happens when an air particle pushes against another air particle?

The air particle with the greater force moves the other air particle in the general direction it was moving
