Solution

Yes, It is Possible to accelerate the Motorcycle without putting the higher petrol into the Engine.

his is because acceleration is a vector quantity which have magnitude as well as direction and it can be changed while changing either its magnitude or direction. If the velocity is constant and its direction is changing this means direction of the acceleration is also changing.

Thus, we can have the accelerated motion while having the constant rate of petrol.
