  • Constant Speed vs. Acceleration: Understanding Vehicle Motion
    No, a car traveling in a straight line at a constant speed is not accelerating.

    Here's why:

    * Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

    * Velocity has two components: speed and direction.

    * If the car's speed is constant and its direction is straight, its velocity is not changing.

    Therefore, the car is not accelerating.
