A particle is moving along `x`-axis. Initilaly it is located `5m` left of origin and it moving away from the origin and slowing down. In this corrdinate system, what are the signs of the initial velocity and acceleration.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(##NG_PHY_MEC_V01_C01_E01_074_A01##)`
Beacause particle is slowing down so velocity and acceleration are in opposite direction.
Since particle si slowing down a is opposie to velcoity `(-)` so a `(+)`.

Assertion:- For a particle moving along a straight line, if they velocity and acceleration have same sign, then the particle may be slowing down. Reason:- For a moving particle speeding up and slowing down does not depend upon the angle between velocity and acceleration.
