KILCHER HOMESTEAD LIVING MUSEUM. 1  In the early 1940âs Yule Kilcher and his bride Ruth came to Alaska from Switzerland to start a new life in Homer, on the shores of Kachemak Bay. 2  Our family lived the subsistence lifestyle, gathering wild greens, hunting moose and catching salmon for food and growing a large garden.
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.
A few years ago in Dr. Dobbâs Journal I wrote about estimating on agile development projects. In that article I discussed burndown charts and how to extend them to show an estimation range. The basic observation is that there is really two velocities exhibited by a team, the gross velocity and the net velocity. The gross velocity which is the amount of work they complete in an iteration, which is what a regular burndown chart shows. The net velocity is the change in the amount of work still to do, which is the amount of work completed in an iteration less the added amount of functionality that iteration.
