What is an increase of speed during a given interval of time?
Acceleration. Deceleration is a decrease of speed during a given interval of time.
How to find acceleration?
Acceleration has two parts ... its size and its direction.To find the size (magnitude):-- pick a time interval-- measure the speed at the beginning of the interval-- measure the speed at the end of the interval-- subtract the speed at the beginning from the speed at the end-- divide that difference by the length of the time interval-- the result is the magnitude of acceleration during that time interval
What is the formula to determine the acceleration of an object moving in a strait line?
Acceleration = (speed at the end of some time interval minus speed at the beginning of the interval)/(length of the time interval)
What is the distance traveled over a given time interval?
That is called speed, or - if the direction is also relevant - velocity.
The amount of distance traveled in a given amount of time measures what?
(change in distance) divided by (time interval) = the object's average speed during that time interval.
What is the distance traveled over a period of time?
It is the product (multiplication) of the average speed and the time interval.

What is average speed definition?
The average speed of an object in an interval of time is the distance traveled by the object divided by the duration of the interval.
Speed measured in an infinately small time interval?
instantaneous speed
How do you find the average speed of an item over a given time?
Average velocity is change in position (displacement) divided by the interval.
What increases speed during a given interval of time?
acceleration
What measures distance traveled in a given time interval?
Speed
Which is an increase of speed during a given interval of time?
"acceleration"
