Case 1:
A driver keeps his foot steady on the gas pedal to keep the car moving at constant acceleration. The driver then shifts gears and the car is still accelerating, but the value of a is then smaller than at the start.
An example is a car moving at constant velocity in a lane on the freeway when the driver decides to momentarily accelerate and change to a faster-moving lane. The driver then continues at a constant, but greater speed.
A motorist applies his brakes so as to slow down to match the speed of a car in front of him. Afterwards the motorist continues at constant speed.
Case 2:
An example is a car moving at constant velocity in a lane on the freeway when the driver decides to momentarily accelerate and change to a faster-moving lane. The driver then continues at a constant, but greater speed.
A driver keeps his foot steady on the gas pedal to keep the car moving at constant acceleration. The driver then shifts gears and the car is still accelerating, but the value of a is then smaller than at the start.
A motorist applies his brakes so as to slow down to match the speed of a car in front of him. Afterwards the motorist continues at constant speed.

Expert Solution
Step 1: Case 1

Looking space at space the space graph space of space case space 1 comma
initially space acceleration space is space constant space and space afterwards space it space again space constant space but space at space straight a space
lesser space value.
correct space choice space is comma
straight A space driver space keeps space his space foot space steady space on space gas space pedal space to space keep space the space car space moving space at space constant space acceleration
The space driver space then space shifts space gears space and space the space car space is space still space accelerating comma space but space the space value space of space straight a space is space smaller space that space at space the space start.
