The car's acceleration is negative if ...

-- it's going slower and slower in the direction that you call 'positive',

OR . . .

-- it's going faster and faster in the direction opposite
to what you call 'positive',

OR . . .

-- it's driving around in a circle AND you call the direction
OUT from the center of the circle the 'positive' direction.

When a car is slowing down, it has a negative acceleration.  Although it is not going a negative speed, it is decreasing in velocity, which is the definition of a negative acceleration.

What happens to the diffraction pattern when the number of lines per centimeter of a diffraction grating is increased?
timofeeve [1]
The separation between two neighboring vital maxima increments. As the quantity lines per centimeter expand, the detachment d between neighboring openings ends up noticeably littler. The point that determines primary maxima of a diffraction grinding is given by transgression = m/d, where is the wavelength and m = 0, 1, 2, 3. For settled estimations of m and the wavelength, this connection demonstrates that as d abatements, increments. For a settled screen area, this implies the separation between two neighboring chief maxima additionally increments.
