Say Yes or No:
a. Can an object moving towards north have acceleration towards south?
b. Can an object reverse the direction of its motion even thouth it has reverse the direcleration?
C. Can an object reverse the derction of its acceleration even though it continues to move in the same dirction?
d. Average speed is the magnitude of average velocity
e. At any instant of time. the directions of change in velocity and acceleration are differnt.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

a. yes ,if its velocity slows down towards north.
b. Yes, if velocity and acceleration are in oppsite directions.
c. Yes if an accelerating object starts decelerating, d. No, because average speed can also greater then avrage velocity.
e. No, change in velocity takes place in the direction of acceleration.
