Question

If an object is accelerating does that mean the object is speeding up

Answer 1

Yes. The object is speeding up. Accelerating refers to the change in speed- going faster.

Answer 2

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though the initial and final speeds are the same, there has been a change in direction for the object. Thus, there is an acceleration. The object was moving rightward and slowed down to 0 m/s before changing directions and speeding up while traveling leftward.
