Kinematics Quiz

Is the following statement possible?

A car is traveling at +10.0 m/s with an acceleration of -2.0 m/s².

• Yes, as this will result in the car having a greater magnitude of velocity

• Yes, as this will result in the car having a lesser magnitude of velocity

• No, as the velocity and acceleration of an object cannot be in opposite directions.

• No, an object cannot have both velocity and acceleration.
