KEY CONCEPT FIGURE 2.26 Determining the sign of the acceleration. The object is moving to the right, so y >0. Because it is speeding up, The object is moving to the left, so v <0. Because it is slowing down, its acceleration vector points opposite to its velocity (i.e., to the right), so a, > 0. The object is moving to the right, so v > 0. Because it is slowing The object is moving to the left, so v, < 0. Because it is speeding up, its acceleration vector points in the same direction as its velocity (i.e., to the left), so a, <0. its acceleration vector points in the same direction as its velocity (i.e., to the right), so a, > 0. down, its acceleration vector points opposite to its velocity (i.e., to the left), so az < 0.
