Best Answer

To calculate Acceleration/Deceleration. You will need to know the speeds at two different points. a = (speed1 - speed2)/time The answer will be negative for deceleration. This will give an average answer as it may fluctuate between the two times.

Change in velocity is called acceleration. It is vector , which means has both magnitude

and direction. There is no one equation for it, but one example that works if mass, m,

is constant, and F, force is constant would be a = F/m.
