the unit of acceleration is

• (m/s²)

• jouls

• m

• s

A negative acceleration means that your object is  

• constant

• speeding up

• at rest

• slowing down

A positive acceleration means that your object is

• at rest

• speeding up

• moving

• slowing down

Velocity has two components

(pick 2 below)

• direction

• change in speed

• speed up

• slow down

The picture of the position vs. time graph shows an object that is...

• accelerating/speeding up
• moving at a constant speed 
• not moving 
• accelerating/slowing down.
