The people living around the equator experience acceleration. Acceleration is the change in speed or/and direction. When on a rotating body, the speed does not change it is only the direction that changes as it rotates.When on a rotating body you do not have to change speed but only direction. In a normal situation when you are traveling on a circle you will never have a straight line.

Answer:

Speed changes at the rate of 24 m/s for each second over time.

Explanation:

We are told the object's acceleration is equal to 24 m/s²

Now we know that acceleration can also be defined as the rate of change of speed with time. Also speed has a unit known as m/s.

Thus, we can rephrase the acceleration in this question to mean;

Speed changes at the rate of 24 m/s for every second with time.

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h, you have a(n) ______ acceleration.
Delicious77 [7]

If your speed changes from 10 km/h to 6 km/h then
you have an acceleration. 

Whether it's a positive or negative one completely depends
on which direction you decided to call the positive direction,
when you started considering your speed and its changes.

If you decided to call the direction in which you're traveling
the positive direction, then a decrease in your speed is a
negative acceleration. 

But you could just as easily have said that you're traveling
in the negative direction.  If you did that, then a decrease in
your speed would be a positive acceleration.

It's completely up to you, and how you define things.
