Accepted Answer
Not so fast.I think you're using 'accelerating' to mean 'speeding up', but you really need to be more careful with it. "Acceleration" means ANY change in speed OR direction. If an object's speed to the left is decreasing, or its speed to the right is increasing, then the net force on the object must be directed towards the right.If an object is moving with constant speed in a circular path, then it's constantly accelerating, because its direction is constantly changing. The force on it is always directed towards the center of the circle, so there's one point on the path where the force is directed straight to the right.
Suggested Answer
This is correct. Just think about it. If you push an object to the right then it will accelerate to the right.
