A positive accelration of a body can be associated with a shoeing down of the body. Acceleration is a vector equantity.

STATEMENT - 1 : A positive acceleration of a body can be associated with a slowing down of the body. and STATEMENT - 2 : Acceleration is a vector quantity.

Assertion: A negative acceleration of a body can be associated with a 'speeding up' of the body. Reason: Increase in speed of a moving body is independent of its direction of motion.

Statement-I : The speed of a body can be negative. Statement-II : If the body is moving in the opposite direction of positive motion, then its speed is negative.

Statement I: An object can possess acceleration even at a time when it has uniform speed statement II: It is possible when the direction of momtion keeps changing.
