Question

Problem 4. Which of the two-velocity or acceleration, gives the direction of motion of the body. Justify your answer by an example. ​

Answer 1

$\bf \pink{Answer}$

It is the velocity which decides the direction of motion of a body. The acceleration simply tells the rate of change of velocity. For example, when a body is thrown vertically upwards, its direction of velocity is upwards, that is why the body goes upward, where as its acceleration is downwards.
