Acceleration

• the speed of an object AND the direction of its motion

• the rate of change of velocity of an object

• the rate of change of an objects position

How do you calculate speed?

• d/t (distance divided by time)

• d/s (distance divided by speed)

• s x t (speed times time)

• s/t (speed divided by time)

How do you calculate distance?

• d/t (distance divided by time)

• d/s (distance divided by speed)

• s x t (speed times time)

• s/t (speed divided by time)

How do you calculate time?

• d/t (distance divided by time)

• d/s (distance divided by speed)

• s x t (speed times time)

• s/t (speed divided by time)
