Question

Which of the following would be affected if a soaring eagle changed direction but remained at a constant speed?

A. acceleration only
B. velocity only
C. acceleration and velocity
D. neither acceleration or velocity

Answer 1

The souring eagle changes C. acceleration and velocity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both acceleration and velocity are vector quantities, they tend to change with change in the direction.

Acceleration can be defined as rate at which an object's velocity changes. The acceleration unit is meter per second per second.

Velocity is a measurement of motion of a particle in a particular rate and direction. An object undergoes a large displacement in a short period of time is said to have higher velocity and vice versa. The velocity unit is meter per second.
