Velocity is the derivate of position with respect to time (i.e., the rate of change of position).
Velocity is a vector (the direction is relevant). If only the number is specified, not the direction, the word "speed" is used instead.
Acceleration is the derivative of velocity with respect to time; or the second derivate of position with respect to time (i.e., the rate of change of velocity).
Acceleration is any change in velocity. Velocity is the speed and direction of motion.
Yes. Acceleration is the change in velocity, and velocity is a vector, which means it has direction. Because an object undergoing uniform circular motion is changing direction, it is changing velocity, and thus, accelerating.
Speed is a measure of motion and velocity just includes what direction it happens in.Acceleration is a measure of changes in speed.
-- "Speed" is the rate at which distance changes. -- "Velocity" is speed along with the direction of motion. -- "Acceleration" is the rate at which velocity changes, including the direction of the change.
velocity
Acceleration is any change in velocity. Velocity is the speed and direction of motion.
Which one SPEED? VELOCITY? ACCELERATION ?...
Velocity . . . what speed and direction something is moving. Acceleration . . . how fast the speed and/or direction of its motion are changing.
Yes. Acceleration is the change in velocity, and velocity is a vector, which means it has direction. Because an object undergoing uniform circular motion is changing direction, it is changing velocity, and thus, accelerating.
A motion with a constant speed will always be moving the same speed A motion with a constant acceleration will constantly be gaining speed, and does not remain moving at the same speed.
Speed is a measure of motion and velocity just includes what direction it happens in.Acceleration is a measure of changes in speed.

velocity
Snowboarding demonstrates speed, velocity, and acceleration. It can also demonstrate a positive or negative value for velocity and acceleration.
No. It is a matter of definition. Acceleration is defined as a change of velocity. Technically, one must distinguish between velocity and speed. Velocity is a vector and includes the information about the magnitude (speed)and direction. One can have a constant speed and an acceleration (as in circular motion) but, by definition, constant velocity means zero acceleration.
FALSE. Acceleration is the change of speed and/or direction of an object.
Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided by the time ora = (vf - vi)/tVelocity measures the speed and the direction of an object.In uniform circular motion, the object has the same speed but it is always changing direction and so, by the definition of acceleration, the object is considered accelerating. If this acceleration doesn't exist, the object would move in a straight line according to Newton's laws of motion.
