What's the difference between instantaneous velocity and instantaneous acceleration?

Instantaneous velocity is the rate at which an object is moving in a uniform direction, distance per unit time, at any given instant in time. instantaneous acceleration is the rate at which an object's velocity is changing at any given instant in time


What is instentaneous acceleration?

instantaneous acceleration is the instantaneous change of velocity with respect to time.


What is the formula of velocity?

There are several definitions. not just one. Average velocity in a direction = Average displacement (distance) in that direction/time Instantaneous velocity in a direction = derivative of displacement in that direction with respect to time Average velocity in a direction = Initial velocity in that direction + Average acceleration in that direction * time Instantaneous velocity in a direction = Definite integral of acceleration in that direction with respect to time, with initial velocity at t = 0 Then there are others in which time is eliminated.


What does a tangent to a velocity-time graph measure?

It will measure acceleration in the direction towards or away from the origin.


Derive the equation for instantaneous average acceleration vector?

You have a contradiction in your question. Instantaneous acceleration is the acceleration at a certain moment in time. Average acceleration is the average over a time interval.


What is the difference between average acceleration and instantaneous acceleration?

Average acceleration is the average of the accelerations acquired in the whole journey by a body while instantaneous acceleration is the acceleration of the body at any particular instant of time.


Are instantaneous velocity and acceleration the same?

no.


What does the slope of the instantaneous speed-vs-time graph represented?

Instantaneous acceleration.


Is average acceleration equal to instantaneous acceleration for a uniformly accelerated car?

Average acceleration will be equal to instantaneous acceleration when an object has an uniform acceleration throughout its motion. Example : A car accelerating at 1m/s2 uniformly in a straight line.


What are the following terms-angular acceleration-centripetal acceleration-instantaneous acceleration-ballistic pendulum-angle of deviation-therionic emission of light-first law of thermodynamic?

instantaneous acceleration is the acceleration at one point. yeah, it's true


Find the instantaneous angular acceleration t5.0 with the instantaneous velocity of 6.0 rads t?

There is insufficient information to answer the question.


What is the importance of uniform acceleration graph in physics what is instantaneous velocity?

The slope of a velocity-time graph that shows uniform acceleration is the actual acceleration. Instantaneous velocity is the velocity of a body at a particular moment in time.
