What do you believe are the correct answers??
I honestly don’t know
Do you recall your teacher saying something along the lines...
"The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion."
Most specifically velocity has a speed and direction... THat will help you answer #8 to begin with.
Velocity and acceleration are vectors.
A vector has BOTH speed and direction.
You can tell the speed of your car with a speedometer. HOWEVER for velocity you need BOTH a speedometer and a COMPASS. (remember that. It is a good way to remember what a vector is)

The acceleration vector is the rate of change of the velocity vector.
If velocity changes, plus or minus or in speed or in direction, you have acceleration
typo: A vector has both MAGNITUDE and direction.
