- acceleration
- acceleration is the rate of change of velocity
- acceleration is how quickly the velocity is changing
- this change in velocity can be a change in speed or a change in direction or both
- the equation
- to calculate the change in velocity, you must always do final velocity - initial velocity
- acceleration is like velocity - its a vector
- and so can have a positive or a negative value
- if an object has a negative acceleration, it is either slowing down, or speeding up in a negative direction
- calculating distance or velocity for uniform acceleration
- uniform acceleration = the acceleration is constant
- acceleration is the rate of change of velocity
