Question

A truck moving due south takes a turn and starts moving towards east while maintaining the same speed.

Its velocity remains constant.
It covers unequal distances in equal intervals of time.
Its velocity changes
None of the above

Answer 1

Its velocity changes

Step-by-step explanation:

When the truck changes direction, its velocity changes.

Velocity is a vector quantity that specifies the magnitude of motion and direction it is taking.

When direction changes, the velocity of a body will also change. This is unlike speed which is a scalar quantity.

Velocity is the displacement divided by time taken.
