i would just say what has already been said…

when you slow the shutter speed, raise the F-stop (make the aperture small) so as you let more light in through keeping the shutter open longer, you let an equivalent amount of light out by making a smaller aperture, so it’s the same exposure, but for a longer time, making the motion more pronounced.
