What does a negative acceleration mean if the object has positive velocity?

Physics

Sedaia [141]2 years ago

Answer:

An object which moves in the positive direction has a positive velocity.  If the object is slowing down then its acceleration vector is directed in the opposite direction as its motion .  If velocity and acceleration have opposite signs, you slow down. Negative velocity = You move backwards. Negative acceleration - You slow down or you go faster in the backwards direction

Explanation:

An object which moves in the positive direction has a positive velocity.

If the object is slowing down then its acceleration vector is directed in the opposite direction as its motion aka negative velocity.

skad [1K]
Almost right. protons are positive and electrons are negative. so when you run the balloon on your hair, electrons are transferred between them (i’m not sure which direction) and now one is positively charged as it lost negative particles and one is negative as it gained negative particles (electrons). opposite charges attract

Photoelectrons with a maximum speed of 8.00 • 106 m/sec are ejected froma surface in the presence of light with a frequency of 6
Andru [333]

The kinetic energy is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

We know the mass and the maximum speed, plugging their values in the expression above we have:

\begin{gathered} K=\frac{1}{2}(9.1\times10^{-31})(8\times10^6)^2 \\ K=2.91\times10^{-17}\text{ J} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is d.

Calculate the density of a solid cube that
tia_tia [17]
Ok so if each side is 4.53 cm, we can multiply 4.53 x 4.53 x 4.53 to get the volume (since v= l x w x h). Density equals mass/volume, so

519 g/4.53 cm 
114.57 g/cm^3 (since none of the units cancel)
