Does constant speed affect acceleration?

[Tiven white]

Homework Statement

trying to figure if acceleration is affected by a constant speed

True/False: If the speed of an object does not change, then its acceleration is zero.

Homework Equations

none

The Attempt at a Solution

I chose false since acceleration is defined by the rate of change of velocity a vector and not speed a scalar thus acceleration is affected by the quantity velocity not speed
