Measure the speed at two different points in time. Then take your first value and subtract the second value. A positive value means a gain in speed, a negative number is a decrease in speed, and a value of 0 means no change in speed. The value itself represents how much it has changed. To describe the the change as acceleration you need to divide the change in speed in meters per second, by the time it took in seconds. The SI unit for acceleration is meteres per second per second.

The wave patterns seen in Figure 25.6 are composed of circles What does this tell you about the speed of the waves in different directions?
speed of the waves will not change by the pattern of waves. the speed of a wave will change only when the medium or its properties change.

What is an example of the difference between speed and velocity?
Speed is what it is: speed. Velocity is speed in a given direction, a vector quantity.
What is the speed at any instant time known as?
Instantaneous speed is speed at any instant in time.
What is a Kiviat graph?
A Kiviat graph is a multi-vector line graph for showing how multiple variables interrelate. For example, if you have 5 factors (speed, risk, cost, innovation, quality in Lyytinen and Rose 2005 http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1148996), as speed increases, it has an impact on risk, cost, innovation and quality. You can show this interrelationship as a figure that moves up and down the 5 axes of a Kiviat graph.

Who do speed skaters and figure-skaters wear different kinds of skates?
They're used for different purposes-- figure skates for jumps and spins and speed skates for speed.
How do you figure average speed?
Average speed = (total distance) / (total time)
What is the wavelenth of 580 Hertz?
You did not specify the speed of the wave. The relationship is: speed = wavelength x frequency. If you know any two of these three, you can figure out the third one.You did not specify the speed of the wave. The relationship is: speed = wavelength x frequency.
