It really depends what information you are given. In the simplest case, you use the definition of acceleration as delta(speed) / time. That is, you divide the change (delta) in speed, and divide by how long it takes for this change in speed. This gives you the average acceleration over the given time. If you assume a constant acceleration, it is also the instantaneous acceleration at any moment.

How do you calcuclate the acceleration of a moving obect?
how do you calculate the acceleration of a moving object.
What must you know about an object that is moving in a straight line to calculate its acceleration?
You must know its mass and the net force. If it is moving at constant velocity, the net force is zero and the acceleration is zero.
The velocity of an object moving in a straight line changes at a constant rate when the object is experiencing constant?
acceleration
What is the difference between object moves wint uniform acceleration and object moves with no acceleration?
An object moving with uniform acceleration has a uniform change in velocity over time, and its velocity-time graph will be a straight line with either a positive or negative slope. An object moving with no acceleration has constant velocity, and its velocity-time graph will be a straight, horizontal line with zero slope. Refer to the related link for illustrations.
An example of zero acceleration would be what?
If you are moving at a speed of ceratin speed and there is no force trying to slow you down, and there is no force trying to speed you up. Then there is zero acceleration. An example would be : an object in out in space, if you throw a object away from you the object will float away, since there is no force working on the object after you throw it the object is moving away in a locked speed from you, but have zero acceleration because there is no force affecting the object
What formula do you use to calculate the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line?
Acceleration = Final velocity - Initial velocity / time

To find the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line you must calculate the charge in distance during unit of time?
You calculate the charge in velocity, not in distance.
To find the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line you must calculate the charge in its speed during each unit of?
time
Does distance affect the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line?
The only thing that causes or influences acceleration of an object is force.
How is am object moving at a constant speed and in a straight line like an object at rest?
An object moving at a constant speed in a straight line has an acceleration of 0. An object at rest also has an acceleration of 0. So, the two things I see in common are their accelerations, which are both 0.
The velocity of an object moving in a straight line changes at a constant rate when the object is experiencing constant?
acceleration
Does an object with a constant speed have an acceleration?
If it's moving in a curve or some other non-straight path, then yes. If it's moving in a straight line, then no.
How is an object moving if a slanted straight line on a speed versus time graph represents its motion?
A straight slanted slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object is moving with a constant acceleration.
What is the difference between object moves wint uniform acceleration and object moves with no acceleration?
An object moving with uniform acceleration has a uniform change in velocity over time, and its velocity-time graph will be a straight line with either a positive or negative slope. An object moving with no acceleration has constant velocity, and its velocity-time graph will be a straight, horizontal line with zero slope. Refer to the related link for illustrations.
