Displacement
Acceleration is the term that describes an increase or decrease in velocity or a change in direction of an object.
Acceleration involving only a change in direction is known as centripetal acceleration. It occurs when an object moves in a circular path at a constant speed, and the centripetal force acts towards the center of the circle to keep the object from moving in a straight line.
No. Velocity describes a speed and a direction. Acceleration, on the other hand, is the rate of change of velocity (in symbols: dv/dt); in other words, how fast does the velocity change.
In physics, acceleration is defined as a change in velocity. Velocity is the measurement of the rate (or speed) and direction of an object. Therefore, an object is "accelerating" when it changes direction while maintaining the same rate (or speed).
Velocity is the rate of change of position of an object with respect to time, while acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time. Velocity describes how fast an object is moving and in which direction, while acceleration describes how quickly the velocity of an object is changing, either in speed or direction.

Equilibrium describes any state where the acceleration and net force are zero. This means that the velocity will not change.

acctually, you are describing two very similar quantities. th quantity that describes how quickly you change your speed, or how fast you are going is your acceleration, measured in distance per unit of time squared. the quantity that describes how quickly you change your direction is called velocity and it is identical to speed except in the fact that velocityshows how fast you go in a certain direction, or how quickly you change your direction
The moon's acceleration is expressed as a change in direction.
Yes, changing the direction of an object's motion affects its acceleration. Acceleration is a vector quantity, so a change in direction will result in a change in acceleration even if the speed remains constant.
A change in speed (and/or direction) is acceleration.
Yes. Acceleration is change in velocity. Velocity is either change in speed or change in direction. If you fix the speed, change in direction can account for change in velocity, i.e. acceleration.
acceleration in a direction that is not parallel to the direction you are moving
