Identify and describe all 5 instances of acceleration in the following scenario. A female bear leaves her bear cubs in their den to go out in search of food. She travels one mile in 30 minutes, heading east. She travels quickly at first, but the she becomes tired and begins moving more slowly. She finds no food, so she heads north for another 10 minutes. She finds a river, so she is able to catch a few fish for her bear cubs. She then turns around and heads, southwest, back towards her den.
