Acceleration occurs when velocity changes over time. The formula for it is as follows:
a = (Vf - Vi) / t
a: acceleration (meters/seconds2)
Vf: Final velocity (meters/seconds)
Vi: Initial Velocity (meters/seconds)
t: Time (seconds)

Motion occurs when there is a change in?
acceleration
When centripical acceleration occurs an object does what?
It is OK !
Acceleration occurs when an object?
Changes direction.
What occurs when objects free fall near earth's surface?
Constant acceleration
What occurs when a object travels in a curved path?
Acceleration
What happens when centripetal acceleration occurs?
The body which is subjected to centripetal acceleration undergoes uniform circular motion.
When does zero acceleration occur?
Zero acceleration occurs when a body's velocity is constant. Newton's First Law of Motion tells us that this occurs when the external forces acting upon a body are balanced.
What is the definition of free fall?
when the acceleration of the freely falling object is equal to the acceleration due to gravity then there occurs free fall.
When does acceleraion occur?
Acceleration occurs when there is unbalanced force applied to an object.
What is the relative acceleration?
Relative acceleration' occurs when there is no increase in momentum (no transfer of energy takes place) and when the increase in density occurs only because an object is descending into a denser 'space' in the energy field, resulting in a relative size contraction which creates increased density and a corresponding relativistic increase in the measure of how 'energetic' that energy system has become. The acceleration that occurs and the relative increase in velocity are the results of momentum remaining constant as the spatial gradient of the energy field changes, such that as the clock slows down a relative acceleration occurs.
Does a car have a negative acceleration when it is leaving?
A car has negative acceleration whenever it's slowing down. It doesn't matter what stage of its trip that occurs in.
What occurs when objects free fall near the Earths surface constant acceleration?
Yes, exactly. Free fall results in constant acceleration.
