choose the correct answer. which scenario would be considered an acceleration? a cars speed changing from 0 mph to 25 mph. a car traveling west at 65 mph. a car parked in a parking lot.
Acceleration is a change in velocity. Velocity includes speed and direction. A car going from 0 mph to 25 mph is changing its speed, which is an acceleration. A car traveling at a constant 65 mph in one - direction has no change in speed or direction (constant velocity, no acceleration). A parked car has zero velocity and no change in velocity, so no acceleration.
