Question
newtons second law: acceleration question 1 of 7 your neighbor is riding her bike around the block. when she slows down and turns a corner, what changes about her? her velocity her friction her speed only her balance
Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction. When she slows down, her speed (a scalar part of velocity) changes, and when she turns a corner, her direction changes. Since both speed and direction are components of velocity, her velocity changes. Friction may change depending on factors like braking and road - surface conditions but is not the most direct change here. Speed only refers to the magnitude of motion and doesn't account for direction change. Balance is more of a qualitative state related to stability and not a physical quantity that directly changes in the context of Newton's second - law acceleration as described in the question.
