Q: Positive acceleration means ……. ….
  • A. The velocity of the object is low.
  • B. The velocity of the object is constant.
  • C. The velocity of the object increases.
  • D. The velocity of the object is zero.
Correct Answer: Option C - Acceleration is the increase in the velocity of a moving object in one second, that is, the positive rate of change of velocity. If the velocity increases then the acceleration is considered positive.
C. Acceleration is the increase in the velocity of a moving object in one second, that is, the positive rate of change of velocity. If the velocity increases then the acceleration is considered positive.

Explanations:

Acceleration is the increase in the velocity of a moving object in one second, that is, the positive rate of change of velocity. If the velocity increases then the acceleration is considered positive.
