Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity and is measured in ms2 (meters per second squared).
It can also be described as the time it takes for the speed to change.

Why does the acceleration of an object affect the speed?
Acceleration is simply a measurement of how the speed is changing, over time.
The measurement of the force of gravity is called what?
units of acceleration
How is motion and acceleration alike And how are they different?
Motion is the measurement of an object and the change of its position over time. Acceleration is the measurement of velocity of an object. Both terms are used in physics. Acceleration denotes an increase of speed of an object while motion does not.
Is gravity a vector measurement?
The acceleration and force of gravity are vectors.
What is an acceleration sensor?
What kind of acceleration sensor are you referring too?
How do you calculate measurement uncertainty for acceleration given uncertainty in time?
If the distance is known to perfection, an acceleration is constant, then the absolute error in the calculation of acceleration is 2/t3, where t is the measured time.
What is foot per second squared?
It is a unit of measurement of acceleration in the old imperial system.
How Two meters per second squared is a measure of?
metres/second2 is a measurement of acceleration
Measurement of the change in the velocity of an object divided by the time it takes for this change to occur is?
Acceleration.
How are newtons and grams different?
Newtons are a measurement of force, whereas grams are a measurement of mass. They are related by the equation F = ma, where Force = mass x acceleration.
What kind of speed has no acceleration?
constant velocity
When an object's final velocity is less than its initial velocity it has what kind of acceleration?
Negative acceleration.
