A uniformly moving cricket ball is turned back by hitting it with a bat for a very short time interval. Show the variation of its acceleration with taking acceleration in the backward direction as positive.

After the velocity of the ball has been decreased to zero, it increases in the forward direction. Thus, the acceleration will be negative in the forward direction
