Aphysics student who is studying velocity and acceleration makes the following statement: “if an object is slowing down, its speed is gradually decreasing. that means that it’s acceleration must be negative.” would you agree with this statement?

I would agree with the statement.

Explanation:

If an object is slowing down, it is covering less distance per unit time and as a result its speed decreases. If acceleration is positive, the object would speed up instead of slowing down.

the gas collects in coils that then becomes a liquid that then flows through the coils inside the refrigerator
