If speed does not change, then acceleration is 0
To find acceleration, you must also know the time
Speed = metres per second.
Acceleration = meters per second, per second
Therefore you can use the equation m/s2 to find the acceleration.

∙ 13y agoTo find the speed of an object if only the acceleration is known is impossible. You would require an initial velocity at a specified time 'a', along with acceleration (which in this case I will assume is constant) in order to determine the velocity at another specified time 'b' distinct from time 'a'. Since velocity is a vector quantity (along with acceleration) and speed is its scalar equivalent, you need to take the modulus of the velocity to get the speed.
If a = acceleration, t = time, u = velocity at time a, and v = velocity we are trying to determine at time b, then v = u + at. In more general terms velocity is the integral of acceleration with respect to time, this definition will work in the general case of acceleration that changes with time.

What is the rate at which speed or direction changes?
Acceleration
A change in speed or direction?
A change in speed or direction is caused by a force and is called acceleration.
What is a change in speed or direction?
Acceleration
To find the acceleration of an object moving in a straight line you must calculate the charge in its speed during each unit of?
time
What kind of motion does the speed and direction not change?
Acceleration in motion refers to a change in speed or direction of that object's motion. So a type of motion in which speed and direction do not change is a motion in which the acceleration is constant (i.e. unchanging).
How do you find the uniform acceleration if the speed and acceleration are given?
Find out the time using speed and acceleration, (time=speed/acceleration) and then use it to find out uniform velocity. From that find out uniform acceleration. (as uniform acceleration is equal changes of velocity over equal intervals of time)
How do you find speed when you have a time and an acceleration?
Speed = Time x acceleration
How do you find speed from acceleration and time?
speed equals to acceleration into time
How do you find distance given acceleration and speed?
acceleration times speed
How do you find the acceleration?
Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)
How do you find average acceleration?
Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)
How do you find speed when given acceleration and time?
The speed at the end of the time is (speed at the beginning of the time) plus (acceleration x length of time)
How do you find final speed if acceleration time and beginning velocity is given?
(acceleration X time) + beginning velocity = final speed
How do you find acceleration using a speed-time graph?
true
How do you find acceleration of a speed time graph?
Acceleration=change in y graph/change in x graph
The relationship of speed and acceleration?
Acceleration is the time rate of change of speed. Acceleration = speed/time.
How to find acceleration?
Acceleration has two parts ... its size and its direction.To find the size (magnitude):-- pick a time interval-- measure the speed at the beginning of the interval-- measure the speed at the end of the interval-- subtract the speed at the beginning from the speed at the end-- divide that difference by the length of the time interval-- the result is the magnitude of acceleration during that time interval
