There are several formulae that involve acceleration. The most basic one is the definition of acceleration, which is:

a = (difference in velocity) / time

This assumes constant acceleration. For non-constant acceleration, the more general formula is:

a = dv / dt

where "dv" is the difference in velocity, and "dt" is the time interval, with the additional assumption that it is a very small time interval. For more details, read an introductory calculus book, to understand the concept of "derivative".
