Speed, Velocity, Acceleration VA PS 10 (Unit 6)

Select 2: Acceleration is

• the change in velocity per unit of time

  $Example:\ \frac{m}{s^2}$

• distance divided by time usually represented in m/s in science

• the speed and direction that an object is traveling in

• an increase or decrease in speed; changing direction
