No. Acceleration IS a change of velocity - any change. When velocity increases, there IS acceleration. The acceleration itself may be increasing, decreasing, or remain constant.

an increase in speed - velocity is another word for speed


What has to happen to a car's acceleration and velocity for a car's speed to increase and have a positive acceleration?

For a car's speed to increase and have a positive acceleration, the car's velocity needs to be increasing in the same direction as its acceleration. This means that the car is speeding up. When the velocity and acceleration have the same sign (both positive or both negative), the car's speed will increase.


What happens to a velocity when the acceleration changes?

If the acceleration changes, the velocity of an object will also change. If the acceleration increases, the velocity will increase. If the acceleration decreases, the velocity will decrease. The velocity and acceleration of an object are directly related.


Increase in velocity called?

Acceleration


What is an increase in the magnitude of velocity called?

An increase in the magnitude of velocity is called acceleration. It refers to the rate at which an object's velocity changes over time.


An increase of the magnitude of velocity is called?

It is called acceleration.


What is an increase in the magnitude of velocity?

It is called acceleration.


Is it possible for an object to have an increasing velocity and an increasing acceleration?

If your acceleration is increasing then by default your velocity has to increase. Acceleration = velocity/time so if acceleration is increasing the velocity is also increasing... And just for fun, just as the change in distance is velocity, and change in velocity is acceleration with respect to time, the change in acceleration with respect to Time is called a jerk


What is the increase of velocity over a period of time is?

Increase of velocity over a period of time is called acceleration.


Which term describes an increase or decrease in velocity or a change in direction?

Acceleration is the term that describes an increase or decrease in velocity or a change in direction of an object.


How are veloc ty and acceleration related?

Velocity and acceleration are related in that acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time. If an object is accelerating, its velocity is changing. A positive acceleration means the object is speeding up, while a negative acceleration means the object is slowing down.


How is the initial velocity zero but the acceleration is not?

Going back to definitions, Velocity is change of distance with time; and acceleration is change in velocity with time. Initially, the velocity is zero, as is the acceleration, BUT the Force of Gravity attracts the falling mass, and causes velocity to appear. But the continued application of the Force of Gravity causes the velocity to increase. And as we know, increase in velocity is acceleration. [space for QED]
