The rate at which an object’s velocity changes over time is called acceleration

Yes, acceleration is a vector quantity. As a vector, it has both magnitude and direction.

The formula to find acceleration is:

Acceleration = Change in Velocity / Change in Time

The formula for calculating average acceleration is:

Average Acceleration = (Final Velocity – Initial Velocity ) / Time

Where:

• Final Velocity : This is the velocity of an object at the end of a certain time interval.
• Initial Velocity: This is the velocity of an object at the beginning of a certain time interval.
• Time : This is the duration for which the motion occurs

The formula for calculating acceleration is:

Acceleration = Change in Velocity / Change in Time

Yes, acceleration can be negative.

Acceleration is negative when an object is slowing down or decelerating. This occurs when the direction of the acceleration is opposite to the direction of the object’s velocity.

Velocity :

• Velocity describes the rate of change of position of an object with respect to time.
• It includes both speed (magnitude) and direction.
• The SI unit of velocity is meters per second (m/s).

Acceleration :

• The rate at which an object’s velocity changes over time is called acceleration. 
•  Due to its vector nature, it includes both direction as well as a magnitude.
• The SI unit for acceleration is meters per second squared (m/s²).

Acceleration = Change in Velocity / Change in Time

Acceleration = Change in Velocity / Change in Time

a = Δv / Δt ​

Where:

• $a$ is the acceleration,
• $\Delta v$ is the change in velocity,
• $\Delta t$ is the change in time.

The SI unit for acceleration is meters per second squared (m/s²).
Other common units include :

• kilometers per hour squared ( km/h²)
• feet per seconds squared (ft/s²)
• centimeters per seconds squared (cm/s²)

Acceleration is a vector quantity. It includes both magnitude and direction, describing the rate of change of an object’s velocity over time. This means it not only tells us how fast an object is speeding up or slowing down (magnitude) but also in which direction it is doing so. 

The formula for calculating acceleration is:

Acceleration = Change in Velocity / Change in Time

The acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.81 m/s² near the Earth’s surface.

The value is the acceleration that an object experiences while falling freely due to Earth’s gravitational pull.

This formula to find distance is :

d = vᵢt + ½ at²

Where:

• $d$ is the distance
• vᵢ is the initial velocity
• $a$ is the acceleration
• $t$ is the time.

t = √2d / a 

Where :

• t is time
• $d$ is the distance traveled
• $a$ is the acceleration.
