You subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide by the time interval.

What is the change in velocity over time?
acceleration a----->velocity=acceleration x time: v=a x t
What is the change in velocity divided by the time interval in which the change occured?
It is acceleration. The difference between final velocity and initial velocity, divided by the time is the AVERAGE acceleration. Remember, though that velocity is a vector. So if you are going round in a circle at a constant speed, your direction of motion is changing continuously and so you are always accelerating!
The process of changing velocity?
The process of velocity change is called acceleration.
Which is greater an acceleration from 25kmh to 30kmh or an acceleration from 96kmh to 100kmh if both occur at the same time?
The acceleration from 25kmh to 30kmh is greater. Acceleration is the rate change in velocity with respect to time (dv/dt). Going from an initial velocity at one point in time to a final velocity at a later point in time, the average acceleration is given by (vf - vi)/(tf -ti), the change in velocity divided by the duration of acceleration. Since going from 25kmh to 30kmh is a change in velocity of 5kmh and going from 96kmh to 100kmh is a change in velocity of 4kmh, and the duration of each is the same, 25 to 30 is the greater acceleration.
Acceleration is defined as a change in velocity over time. if a runner increases velocity from 2 ms to 4 ma over a period of 20 seconds what is her acceleration?
The idea is that you should: a) Calculate the change in velocity. b) Divide this change by the time. This gives you the average acceleration over the 20 seconds, in this case.
When calculating acceleration to find the change in velocity do you subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity?
Yes.
What is the Formula for calculating net acceleration?
Net acceleration = (change in velocity) divided by (time for the change)
If an object is moving at a constant velocity what do you know about its acceleration?
"Acceleration" means change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero.
Is there an acceleration when an object traveling at constant velocity and why?
No. Acceleration is change of velocity / time. If there is no change in velocity, there is no acceleration.
What is the change in velocity over time?
acceleration a----->velocity=acceleration x time: v=a x t
Is Acceleration is the magnitude of average velocity?
No. Acceleration is (change of velocity) divided by (time interval in which it changed). If velocity doesn't change, then there is no acceleration.
When a cars velocity is uniform what it is acceleration?
Acceleration is change of velocity divided by time; so if the velocity doesn't change, acceleration is zero.
Measures the changes in velocity?
A change in velocity is acceleration, so a accelerometer
What is the difference between volicity and accleration?
Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).
Does velocity differ from acceleration?
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
What is the equation for change in acceleration?
accelaration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. Therefore the formula for acceleration is a =(Final Velocity - Initial Velocity) divide by the (change in time)
What is the rate change in velocity?
The rate of change in velocity is known as acceleration.
