No. Acceleration is (change of velocity) divided by (time interval in which it changed). If velocity doesn't change, then there is no acceleration.

Is acceleration the magnitude of average velocity?
No, acceleration is rate of change of velocity!
Acceleration is the magnitude of average velocity?
It is not. Average acceleration is (change of velocity)/(time for the 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.
What is magnitude of acceleration?
magnitude of acceleration=change of velocity/time invertal
When will the average acceleration be equal to instantaneous velocity?
If the object begins from rest and a constant force is applied to it, then at the end of one second, the magnitude of its velocity is numerically equal to the magnitude of its average acceleration, although the units are different.
What is the magnitude of average velocity?
what is magnitude of average velocity
Is it true that you find acceleration when initial velocity final velocity and time are given?
With that information, you can find the average magnitudeof the accelerationduring that period of time. You can't tell what either the magnitude or directionwere at any time during, only the average magnitude for the whole interval.
Are speed and acceleration the same?
No. Speed is the magnitude of velocity and acceleration is the change of velocity in time.
How does acceleration affect velocity?
Acceleration is the process of changing the magnitude or the direction of velocity, or both.
Are velocity and acceleration vectors?
Yes, velocity and acceleration are vectors as they both have a magnitude and a direction.
How do you calculate magnitude of acceleration?
acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity)/time interval
What is the slope of the velocity vs time graph?
The slope represents the rate of change of velocity, which is the magnitude of the acceleration. If the velocity vs time graph is a straight line, that means the magnitude of velocity is constant, and the magnitude of acceleration is zero. The graph conveys no information regarding the direction of velocity or acceleration.
How fast velocity changes?
magnitude of acceleration
What does slope represnt in a velocity and time graph?
magnitude of acceleration (change in magnitude of velocity over time)
Does average velocity and average speed have the same number?
velocity is a vector and speed is scalar. Velocity has magnitude and directions, with magnitude being speed. The magnitude of average velocity and average speed is the same.
Determine whether you are accelerating as earth rotates once every 24 hours?
Yes. Since the direction of the movement changes, that means there is an acceleration. Remember, acceleration is a change in velocity; velocity includes both a magnitude and a direction.Yes.

What quantities indicate a direction and a magnitude?
Acceleration and velocity
What is an increase in the magnitude of velocity called?
It is called acceleration.
Which quantities indicate a direction and a magnitude?
. Velocity Acceleration
On a velocity vs time graph what shows the value of the acceleration?
The magnitude of the acceleration at every instant is the slope of the graph at that instant.The average acceleration over a period of time is the (difference in velocity during that time) divided by the (time).
How can acceleration change the magnitude and direction of the velocity?
Velocity is speed in some direction. Acceleration changes that speed or that direction (or both).
What is the first derivative of speed?
Speed is scalar (it doesn't have direction), and the magnitude of velocity (a vector). The first derivative of velocity is acceleration, therefore the first derivative of speed is the magnitude of acceleration.
What is the relationship between accerleration and velocity?
Acceleration is the rate of change of the magnitude of velocity and the direction in which the velocity changes.
The rate at which the velocity of an object changes?
That's the magnitude of its acceleration.
