Solution

The scenario that demonstrates acceleration is when a car speeds up or slows down. Acceleration refers to the rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time. This includes an increase in speed (speeding up), decrease in speed (slowing down), or a change in direction. The other scenarios do not involve a change in velocity, and therefore, do not demonstrate acceleration.
