However, [Jisho](https://jisho.org/search/%E9%81%85%E3%81%8F) says that 遅く can
mean 'slowly,' but I can't find an example for that meaning in the same
source.

In this [thread](https://it.hinative.com/questions/17018740), answerers agree
that 遅く can be used to mean 'slowly.'

question
usage
Can 遅く mean 'slowly'?
遅く can mean _slowly_ , but ゆっくり is almost always preferred in non-technical
contexts. もっと遅く食べた方がいいよ and 彼は遅く走る are not completely wrong but do sound
fairly unnatural to me.

遅く meaning _slowly_ may be naturally used in scientific contexts because ゆっくり
can have unwanted nuances like "relaxed; leisurely". For example, saying
物体が光の速度に近づくと時間が遅く流れる referring to the theory of relativity looks natural to
me.
