Read these sentences from the text.

"Some people are also taught to brake before making a turn and to accelerate during the turn. But Bullock tells the group that they should brake while making turns. Controlled braking during a critical turn can actually help a car turn, by increasing the friction between the car’s front tires and the road. Friction is a force that resists the sliding of one object relative to another. The friction between a tire and the road depends partly on the weight pressing down on the tire. Due to a phenomenon called weight transfer, braking shifts some of a car’s weight forward, from the back tires to the front tires. That extra weight increases the force of friction between the front tires and the road, helping the car turn."

Based on this evidence, what can you infer about the effect of accelerating during a turn?

Accelerating during a turn may cause a car's weight to shift forward, from the back tires to the front tires
Accelerating during a turn is unlikely to have any effect on the difficulty of making the turn.
Accelerating during a turn may make turning more difficult by decreasing the friction between a car's front tires and the road.
Accelerating during a turn may make turning less difficult by increasing the friction between a car's front tires and the road.

Accelerating during a turn may make turning more difficult by decreasing the friction between a car's front tires and the road.

Based on the evidence provided, we can infer that accelerating during a turn may make turning more difficult by decreasing the friction between a car's front tires and the road. The text explains that controlled braking during a turn can actually help a car turn by increasing the friction between the car's front tires and the road. This increased friction is due to weight transfer, which occurs when braking shifts some of the car's weight forward from the back tires to the front tires. Conversely, accelerating during a turn would shift some of the car's weight to the back tires, potentially decreasing the force of friction between the front tires and the road. Therefore, accelerating during a turn may make turning more challenging.

Based on the evidence provided, you can infer that accelerating during a turn may make turning less difficult by increasing the friction between a car's front tires and the road.
