Yes, sort of. At least, that's the units used. The actual definition of acceleration is:

a = dv/dt

In other words, the rate at which velocity changes. In the case of constant acceleration, that would be equal to a change in velocity, divided by the time interval during which this change takes place. In the case of non-constant acceleration, the acceleration, or rate of change of velocity, can of course change from one moment to another.

Yes. (if the initial velocity is zero)

if not then velocity = initial velocity + acceleration x time

What about in acceleration-time graphs where the velocity is the area under the graph (1/2 x a x t)?

What equals acceleration x time?

It's equal to the change in velocity (final velocity - initial velocity).


What is acceleration multiplied by time?

Since acceleration is defined as change of velocity divide by time, it has units of (velocity / time). acceleration x time = (velocity / time) x time = velocity


What is the change in velocity over time?

acceleration a----->velocity=acceleration x time: v=a x t


What velocity does the aircraft gain in 5s if an aircraft has a uniform acceleration of 4ms2 on take off?

The change in velocity, in this case, is equal to acceleration x time.


What is the fourmla for acceleration x time?

velocity = acceleration x time v = a x t


What is the equation for change in acceleration?

accelaration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. Therefore the formula for acceleration is a =(Final Velocity - Initial Velocity) divide by the (change in time)


How do you find final speed if acceleration time and beginning velocity is given?

(acceleration X time) + beginning velocity = final speed


What is formulas finding speed and velocity?

velocity = distance / time There are also some formulae involving acceleration; for example, in the case of constant acceleration: velocity = initial velocity + acceleration x time If the acceleration is not constant, an integral is used instead.


A particle is moving along the x-axis. The line graph shows the velocity of the particle over time. When is the instantaneous acceleration of the particle equal to 0?

5. A particle is moving along the x-axis. The line graph shows the velocity of the particle over time. When is the instantaneous acceleration of the particle equal to 0?


Can you have velocity without acceleration?

Yes, a body can have aceleration without velocity. Consider sin x the position; cos x is the velocity and -sin x is the acceleration. Here the acceleration negative when x=90 degrees and the velocity is zero at 90 degrees.


Can the effect of initial velocity on final velocity be predicted?

Well, (final velocity) = (initial velocity) + (acceleration x time)


Can bodies with different velocities have same acceleration?

Yes, velocity is acceleration x time. If acceleration is the same, velocity can be different as it changes with time. For example a car accelerating with constant acceleration will have a different velocity after 5 seconds than it will have at 2 seconds.
