Physics Question

Question

If velocity is negative, and acceleration is negative, the object is speeding up.

Is this statement true or false ?

Answer 1

When velocity and acceleration are moving in the same direction (have the same sign), the object is speeding up.

When velocity and acceleration are moving in opposite directions (opposite signs), the object is slowing down.

Therefore, if both velocity and acceleration are negative, the object is speeding up. True.
