... ACCELERATION is how rapidly an object changes its SPEED (or VELOCITY) It is calculated by dividing the change in speed by the time taken to make that change. Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time taken to make that change) Example. A car accelerates from rest (speed=0 m/ s) to 28m/s in 7 s accele ...
