What is definition for speed and acceleration formulas?

There are different types of speed formulas: Speed= Wavelength(frequency) or Speed= Distance/Time


Can bodies with different velocities have same acceleration?

Yes, velocity is acceleration x time. If acceleration is the same, velocity can be different as it changes with time. For example a car accelerating with constant acceleration will have a different velocity after 5 seconds than it will have at 2 seconds.


An increase of speed during a given interval of time is called?

The shift of velocity per unit of given time is called acceleration. The types of acceleration are negative acceleration and positive acceleration.


Is the kinematics equation true if acceleration is not constant?

Kinematics does not require constant acceleration. There are different equations for different situations. So some of the equations will be valid even when the acceleration is not constant.


What are 2 types of acceleration?

-- slowing down -- turning a corner


Is velocity the same as acceleration?

Both are vectors. But acceleration and velocity have different dimensions. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.


How is a negative acceleration different from a positive acceleration?

Actually, it depends on how you define the coordinate axes, but usually when moving forward, negative acceleration decreasesspeed, positive acceleration increasesit.


Can acceleration change with out increase or decrease speed?

yes the 3 types of acceleration are increased speed decrease speed or change in direction.


What is does a horizontal line mean on a speed time graph?

It means the speed doesn't change. Stated in different terms, the acceleration is zero.It means the speed doesn't change. Stated in different terms, the acceleration is zero.It means the speed doesn't change. Stated in different terms, the acceleration is zero.It means the speed doesn't change. Stated in different terms, the acceleration is zero.


In physical science what are the 3 types of acceleration?

linear centripetal uniform


How do you convert acceleration into time?

we cant convert acceleration in to time since both have different dimensions.


What is the different between motion and acceleration?

Motion is about speed of location change, acceleration is about speed change.
