Well, with such a question as this (no details as to where the sound seems to come from,) there are a couple usual answers for this. If you have a turbo charged (or otherwise forced induction engine), that would be the loudest whine under acceleration. If not, most probably your transmission the gears and other parts of the clutch system will rub together and make a slight whining noise, especially when the motor/transmission is cold. The tranny fluid is more viscous, thus the parts are working that little bit harder to move.

My Toyota Previa as a wineing noise when you accelerate and is getting worse?

Previas have a history of a whining noise coming from the catalytic converter. There is a bracket inside the converter that when loose or has came apart creates the whining noise during acceleration. It especially is very pronouced during high speeds in the freeway. You might be in for an expensive cat converter replacement.

Can a weak battery cause the alternator to make a loud whining noise?

I would say probably not, the reason your battery is weak is I reckon due to a fault with your alternator. It is obviously not producing sufficient power (electricity ) to keep the battery charged. The whining noise is probably caused by worn-out bearings. A replacement or re-conditioned alternator should cure the problem .
