Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. If an object increases its speed from, say, 10 ft/s to 60 ft/s in five seconds, its acceleration is 10 feet per second per second, or 10 feet per second squared (ft/s2).
How did we arrive at that figure? Divide the change in velocity by the change in time. The change in velocity is 60 - 10 = 50 ft/s. The change in time is 5 - 0 = 5 s. Hence, 50/5 = 10 ft/s2.
Velocity is the speed of an object in any given direction (constant); acceleration measures the change in speed of an object over time.
"Acceleration" means change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero.
No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.
No. Acceleration is change of velocity / time. If there is no change in velocity, there is no acceleration.
Acceleration is the derivative of velocity. In other words, acceleration is the rate at which the velocity is changing.
Yes. If a body has a constant velocity there is no acceleration, but if the velocity is changing there is acceleration present.

Acceleration is the rate at which velocity is changing.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.
Both are vectors. But acceleration and velocity have different dimensions. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
Velocity is speed in a given direction Acceleration is the rate in which you change velocity.
