Drag each statement into the correct bin based on whether it describes motion that involves acceleration or motion at constant velocity.

Acceleration:
- A ball is in freefall after being dropped from a high window.
- A planet is orbiting the Sun in an elliptical orbit.
- A car is holding a steady speed around a curve.
- A car is speeding up after being stopped.
- A planet is orbiting the Sun in a circular orbit.
- A car is slowing down for a stop sign.

Constant Velocity:
- A spaceship is coasting without engine power in deep space.
- A car is driving 100 km/hr on a straight road.
- An elevator is going upward at constant speed.

Note: For the motions that are on Earth (e.g., car, ball, elevator), ignore any effects of Earth's rotation or orbit.

Final answer:

Objects in freefall or speeding up/slowing down experience acceleration, while objects coasting in space or maintaining constant speed exhibit constant velocity.


Explanation:

Acceleration:

  • a ball is in freefall after being dropped from a high window
  • a car is speeding up after being stopped
  • a car is slowing down for a stop sign

Constant Velocity:

  • a spaceship is coasting without engine power in deep space
  • an elevator is going upward at constant speed
  • a car is holding a steady speed around a curve
