Acceleration

Question 6 • AA-F26 Physical Science

Which scenario involves acceleration?

Answer
A
a motorcycle at constant speed on a highway
B
a recreational vehicle parked in a campground
C
a car decreasing its speed due to a red light
D
a teenager talking to friends at an intersection

Explanation

Acceleration is a change in velocity, which includes a change in speed or direction. The car slowing down for a red light is changing its speed, so it is accelerating (in the direction opposite its motion). The motorcycle’s speed is constant, and the other scenarios describe no motion or no change in motion.
