Rossi: Death and taxes - Understanding how 'step-up in basis' works. An IRS building in a file photo. It is often said the only certainties in life are death and taxes. Thanks to estate and inheritance tax, it is not uncommon for them to occur simultaneously.
Probable Causes: An engine that hesitates, stumbles or misfires when accelerating or when it is under load, is an engine that is either sucking too much air, not getting enough fuel, or misfiring. If there are no misfire codes, a common cause of acceleration stumble is a bad throttle position sensor (TPS).
Wrong. An object with negative acceleration could be speeding up, and an object with positive acceleration could be slowing down. How is this so? Consider the fact that acceleration is a vector that points in the same direction as the change in velocity. That means that the direction of the acceleration determines whether you will be adding to or subtracting from the velocity.
