A bowling ball with a negative initial velocity slows down as it rolls down the lane toward the pins. Is the bowling ballâs acceleration positive or negative as it rolls toward the pins?

Respuesta :

Manetho

Answer:

positive

Explanation:

The ball is rolling down with a negative velocity, but the velocity is slowing down. therefore the velocity must increase in order for the ball to slow down.

For example let the ball's initial velocity be -15 m/s. and it  is slowing down to let's say -13 m/s. Well this means that it's velocity has increase by 2 m/s. So, its acceleration is positive.
