Acceleration definition

Change in speed over time

Acceleration units

m/s²

Uniform acceleration

Velocity changes by same amount each second

uu in motion equations

Initial velocity

vv in motion equations

Final velocity

aa in motion equations

Acceleration

tt in motion equations

Time taken

ss in motion equations

Distance travelled

Motion equation with vv, uu, aa, tt

v=u+atv = u + at

Motion equation: ss with average velocity

s = rac{u + v}{2} imes t

Motion equation: ss with uu, aa, tt

s = ut + rac{1}{2}at^2

Motion equation without time

v2=u2+2asv^2 = u^2 + 2as

Positive acceleration indicates

Object is speeding up

Negative acceleration indicates

Object is slowing down
