Acceleration in Action. Making a right turn outside my local 7-11, this white car shows physics in a real world application. Coming to a stop at the light before he makes his turn, his velocity is 0.0m/s, then turns right and accelerates while getting onto Hawaii Kai Drive. He needs to accelerate to match the flow of traffic, but can not accelerate too much as Hawaii Kai Drive is notorious for speed traps! Physics is applied everywhere in the real world, all you have to do is look for it.
