is this an example of speed, velocity, or acceleration?
acceleration
speed
velocity
Brief Explanations
Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to how fast an object is moving, without considering direction. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Since the example only mentions "20 m/s" (a magnitude of speed) without any direction, it is speed.
