Question

When a moving object reduces its speed, what happens to the object's acceleration in relation to its velocity?

Answer 1

When speed is decreasing, velocity and acceleration are in opposite directions.

Answer 2

When speed reduces, acceleration decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

From first equation of motion;

`{ \tt{v = u + at}}`

When time is constant:

`{ \tt{v = 0 + kt}} \\ { \tt{v = kt}} \\{ \tt{v \: \alpha \: \: a}}`
