Acceleration Exit Ticket

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object over time.

a = (ev - sv) / t, where 'ev' is the ending velocity, 'sv' is the starting velocity, and 't' is the time taken.

Acceleration is calculated by dividing the change in velocity by the time taken for the change to occur.

A positive acceleration indicates that an object is speeding up.

A negative acceleration (deceleration) indicates that an object is slowing down.

5 m/s²

4 m/s²

-2 m/s²

The unit of acceleration is meters per second squared (m/s²).

Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to how fast an object is moving, while velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction.
