Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity, and velocity has both magnitude as well as direction. If any one of the two changes, then motion is accelerated. When an object has a constant speed, the magnitude of velocity is constant, but the direction may change and cause acceleration.
