Question

Distinguish between acceleration and deceleration.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Deceleration takes place when a resultant force acts on an object in the direction opposite to the direction in which it is moving. In everyday terms, an acceleration refers to an increase in speed. In everyday terms, a deceleration refers to a reduction in speed

However, there is difference between literal and scientific meanings of these terms. In literal sense, acceleration is considered to describe an increase or positive change of speed or velocity. On the other hand, deceleration is considered to describe a decrease or negative change of speed or velocity.
