If the acceleration is negative and the velocity is also negative, the speed of the object increases.Deceleration: It means a reduction in speed or a slowing down. Some confusion is there between deceleration and negative acceleration. Negative acceleration can increase the speed of an object.
Velocity-time graphs. You should be able to explain velocity-time graphs for objects moving with a constant velocity or a changing velocity. The velocity of an object is its speed in a particular direction. This means that two cars travelling at the same speed, but in opposite directions, have different velocities.
