Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. If you know calculus, acceleration is the first derivative of velocity. If you don't know calculus, acceleration is the slope of the velocity curve or graph. All these definitions are equivalent.

Disscuss the relationship between velocity and accleration?

accleration is the speed. Velocity is when you know the speed of an object and its direction.


What are a few physics formulas for finding time?

Change in Distace= Initial velocity multiplied by change in time plus half the accleration times change in time squared x=VoT+.5aT^2 Final velocity squared=Intial velocity squared plues two times accleration times change in distance Vf^2=Vo^2+2aX Final velocity= Initial velocity plus accleration times change in time Vf=Vo+aT


What formula is used to calculate accleration?

Accelaration= change in velocity/time taken OR Acceleration=final velocity- initial velocity/time taken


What is accelerated motion?

►►The rate of change of velocity per unit of time is defined as accleration►2.If we write the definition for acceleration in mathematical terms:Final Velocity - Initial VelocityTime


Why does accleration reach terrminal velocity?

Terminal velocity refers to the point where the forces have come into balance. For example when the air resistance equal the force being applied to accelerate.


Is accleration equal to velocity divided by time?

Yes acceleration equals velocity divided by time i.e a=v/t and it's S.I unit is m/s2


What is the difference between and accleration?

Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).


What is the equation for accleration?

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. The equation for acceleration is a = (v_f - v_i) / t, where a is acceleration, v_f is the final velocity, v_i is the initial velocity, and t is the time interval.


When body have 2ms accleration in 15 seconds with a velocity 30ms does the velocity of the car uniform?

Although the question is stated in a somewhat confusing way, we can state withconfidence that the velocity of the car is NOT uniform, because a value is given forits acceleration. 'Uniform' motion means zero acceleration.


When a falling object has reached its teminal velocity its accleration?

When a falling object reaches its terminal velocity, its acceleration becomes zero. The downward force of gravity is balanced by the upward force of air resistance, resulting in no overall acceleration.


Zero acceleration will the velocity be constant?

Whenever velocity is constant, the acceleration is zero. This also works when the velocity is zero, the acceleration is zero. That pretty much means the object isn't moving. But, yes/ If velocity is constant, accleration is zero.


How is velocity related dto power?

velocity like to power becaus velocity related to power.
