Acceleration is the change in velocity ("speed") over time.
No. Acceleration and speed are related in the same way irrespective of being linear or angular. Acceleration is rate of change of speed.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity (not speed). Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time. Velocity is defined by speed and direction. A satellite orbiting the earth at a constant speed is still accelerating because gravity is making it travel in a circle (or ellipse) and consequently its direction and therefore its velocity is constantly changing.
Speed or acceleration have no effect on gravity.
Constant speed means that speed doesn't change. Constant acceleration means that acceleration doesn't change. (If the acceleration is anything but zero, speed WILL change.)
Force equals mass times acceleration. To change a speed, you must apply some force (either positive or negative) to give the object some acceleration. How quickly the object's speed changes will correspond to the force given divided by the mass of the object. (ie, the acceleration)
A change in speed (and/or direction) is acceleration.
No. Acceleration and speed are related in the same way irrespective of being linear or angular. Acceleration is rate of change of speed.
Acceleration can be either a change in speed or a change inthe direction of the motion even if speed doesn't change.a=dv/dt
They are not alike but they are related. A positive acceleration means an increase in velocity (speed). A negative acceleration means a decrease in velocity. Velocity (speed) has the dimensions of distance / time. Acceleration has the dimensions of distance/time2 or velocity/time.
Acceleration is the time rate of change of speed. Acceleration = speed/time.
Speed is the rate of motion usually expressed as distance traveled per unit of time.Velocity is the rate of change of position. Both speed and direction are required. Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity. In common speech, acceleration is only for an increase in speed; a decrease in speed is deceleration. In physics, any increase or decrease in speed or change of direction is referred to as acceleration.

constant speed=0 acceleration Acceleration is the change in speed. If the speed doesn't change(ie constant) the acceleration is zero.
Average acceleration = Change in speed/time so Time = Change in speed/Average acceleration
they can go 0-40 m.p.h in about 2 seconds almost as much acceleration as a porche carera, just not as much top speed.
Speed = Time x acceleration
