Acceleration is the RATE OF CHANGE of velocity. That means that acceleration and velocity have different units.The only similarity is that both are defined as rates of change.

How is acceleration similar to speed and velocity?
-- The magnitude of acceleration is equal to the time rate of change of speed. -- The magnitude of acceleration is equal to the time rate of change of the magnitude of velocity. -- Acceleration and velocity are both vectors.
How is motion similar to acceleration?
If we replace "motion" with a similar term called "velocity", both are rates of change:* Velocity is the rate of change of position (the derivative of the position, with respect to time). * Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity (that makes it the second derivative of the position, with respect to time).
If an object is moving at a constant velocity what do you know about its acceleration?
"Acceleration" means change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero.
Is it possible for a body to have acceleration when moving constant speed and constant velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
Is there an acceleration when an object traveling at constant velocity and why?
No. Acceleration is change of velocity / time. If there is no change in velocity, there is no acceleration.
HOW DOES TIME CHANGE ACCELERATION?
acceleration is velocity divided by time.so increasing or decreasing the velocity would change the time....(velocity=speed)A2. But there is a name for the change of acceleration, it is Jerk. (as in a stockwhip for example) [This property has some other similar names, but i was trained in the US system of physics.]

How is speed velocity and acceleration alike?
Acceleration is the derivative of velocity. In other words, acceleration is the rate at which the velocity is changing.
When a body has velocity no constant has acceleration or no?
Yes. If a body has a constant velocity there is no acceleration, but if the velocity is changing there is acceleration present.
Is it possible for a body to have an acceleration when moving with constant velocity?
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
What is the change in velocity over time?
acceleration a----->velocity=acceleration x time: v=a x t
How does acceleration and velocity differ?
Acceleration is the rate at which velocity is changing.
