### Acceleration is the rate at which happens?

Acceleration is the rate at which an object's velocity changes over time.

### What happens to an object's acceleration if force increases?

The acceleration will increase, calculate new rate from: acceleration = force / mass

### Acceleration is the rate at which what changes?

Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes. (Not speed.)

### Acceleration is the rate at which?

acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.

### Explaine what happens to the velocity and the acceleration of an object in fall?

Neglecting any effects of air resistance . . . -- velocity increases continuously, at a constant rate -- acceleration is constant

### What is the rate of change of acceleration?

Velocity is the rate of change of position; acceleration is the rate of change of velocity; jerk is the rate of change of accelerationSee related link below for information on "Jerk"

### What can be defined as the rate at which velocity changes?

accelerationThe rate at which velocity changes is called "acceleration".

### How does acceleration increase velocity?

Acceleration and deceleration are measures of the rate of change in velocity. The amount of acceleration is essentially the rate that velocity is increasing.

### Definition of acceleration?

increase rate in speed of acceleration

### What happens to the displacement velocity and acceleration of an object as it falls through the air to the ground?

Displacement: Grows with time, at an increaing rate. Velocity: Grows with time, at a constant rate. Acceleration: Greater than zero, remains constant with time.

### Is acceleration defined as the rate of change of position?

No, that would be speed. Acceleration is the rate of change of speed.

### What is rate of change acceleration?

the rate of change of acceleration is known as velocity FORMULA=v/t

### What is the meaning of acceleration?

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. When at a steady speed, there is no rate of change of velocity and therefore acceleration is zero. When the rate of change of speed is positive, such as a car speeding up, acceleration is positive. If the rate of change of speed is negative, such as a driver applying the brakes, there is negative acceleration, or deceleration.

### Is deceleration a form acceleration?

Acceleration and deceleration are both the rate at which velocity changes, Deceleration is a negative acceleration. In an equation the rate of deceleration is shown as a negative acceleration valueCentripetal acceleration is different and represents the rate of change of tangential velocity. There is no equivalent centripetal deceleration.

### The rate of a change in velocity?

Rate of change of position = velocityRate of change of velocity = accelerationRate of change of acceleration = jerk, jolt, surge, or lurch

### How is veolcity and acceleration related?

Velocity is the rate of progress, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.Hope this helps.

### How do you define of acceleration?

It actually means this. Increase in the rate or speed

### What happens to the acceleration of an object if its mass increases?

If the mass of an object increases, what happens to the acceleration?
