An example of this situation is a car driving around a circular track at a constant speed. Although the speed (magnitude of velocity) remains the same, the direction of the car’s motion is continuously changing, resulting in acceleration.
Give an example of a situation where an object’s magnitude of velocity remains constant, but its direction changes.

An example is a car driving at a constant speed around a circular track. Although the car’s speed (magnitude of velocity) remains constant, its direction continuously changes as it follows the curved path. This results in a change in velocity due to the changing direction, even though the speed remains the same.
