Negative acceleration is called retardation. If the velocity of a body is decreasing with respect to time, the acceleration is said to be negative.
Examples of retardation motion are:
1) Velocity of vehicle decreases when brake is applied.
2) Landing of Aeroplane
3) When fan is switched off
4) A train reaching at a station

RETARDATION -
The negative acceleration is called retardation.
If the velocity of a body is decreasing with respect to time, the acceleration is said to be negative. Retardation is the rate of decrease in velocity.
For example -
A car stopping in front of a red light. (It was going fast, but as soon as the driver saw the red light, he started slowing down)
A runner taking a break. The runner can’t stop immediately (remember inertia?), so he starts slowing down.
Hope it will help you friend :)
