two birds are flying in separate straight - line paths in the sky, each with a constant speed of 13 m/s. which of the following statements must be true based solely on the previous statement?
□ both birds are accelerating.
□ both birds have the same velocities.
□ both birds are traveling in the same direction.
□ both birds have no change in their velocity.
□ both birds are traveling the same distance per second.

Explanation:

• Acceleration is zero when speed and direction are constant, so the first statement is false.
• Velocity depends on speed and direction; the problem doesn't state they share the same direction, so their velocities aren't necessarily equal.
• The problem only says they fly in straight lines, not the same direction, so this is not guaranteed.
• Constant speed means no change in velocity (since direction is straight, velocity is constant).
• A constant speed of 13 m/s means both cover 13 meters each second, so they travel the same distance per second.

Answer:

• Both birds have no change in their velocity.
• Both birds are traveling the same distance per second.
