Question While playing her soccer game, Samantha runs down the field at 10 meters per second. She has a constant speed and does not change direction. What is Samantha’s acceleration?(1 point) Responses The acceleration is 10 m/s^2 because her velocity increased. The acceleration is 10 m/s^2 because her velocity increased. The acceleration is 0 m/s^2 because her velocity increased. The acceleration is 0 m/s^2 because her velocity increased. The acceleration is 0 m/s^2 because her velocity did not change. The acceleration is 0 m/s^2 because her velocity did not change. The acceleration is 10 m/s^2 because her velocity did not change.

The correct response is: The acceleration is 0 m/s² because her velocity did not change.
Acceleration refers to the rate of change of velocity. Since Samantha is running at a constant speed (10 meters per second) and does not change direction, her velocity remains constant, which means her acceleration is 0 m/s².
