Mrs. Wharton’s Science Class.  Is the rate at which velocity changes  Acceleration involves a change in either speed or direction  In science acceleration.

 Acceleration: When an object changes velocity, it undergoes acceleration.  Acceleration (a) = (v f - v i )/t Change in speed = v f - v i v i = (initial.

Acceleration Acceleration – the rate at which velocity changes  Can be an: Increase in speed Decrease in speed Change in direction.

What is acceleration? – Probably heard it mean: “the process of speeding up” – More specifically: the rate at which velocity changes. Remember that velocity.

Acceleration Key Concepts

 Describe the concept of acceleration as a change in velocity  Explain why circular motion is continuous acceleration even when speed does not change.

Interpret The Graph. The graph shows an object which is not moving (at rest). The distance stays the same as time goes by because it is not moving.

 “Acceleration”

 Key Questions How do you calculate acceleration? What kind of motion does acceleration refer to? What graphs can be used to analyze the motion of an accelerating object?

acceleration- Key Terms

Paragraph 1 acceleration: rate at which velocity changes; Note: velocity described by its speed, direction; refers to: 1. increasing speed; 2. decreasing speed; 3. changing direction × en.wikipedia.org511 × en.wikipedia.org

Paragraph 2 change in object’s speed = acceleration; positive or negative change; negative change = deceleration × en.wikipedia.org511 × en.wikipedia.org

Paragraph 3 changing direction = also accelerating, even w/ constant speed; examples: car going around a curve; car changing lanes × en.wikipedia.org511 × en.wikipedia.org

Paragraph 4 Note: many objects change direction at constant speed; simplest type is circular motion like orbital motion like the moon around the Earth × en.wikipedia.org511 × en.wikipedia.org

Paragraph 5 Note: to determine acceleration, calculate change in velocity per unit of time; Acceleration = Final velocity – Initial velocity / Time; Note: if velocity measured in meters/second and time measured in seconds then unit of acceleration is meters per second second × en.wikipedia.org511 × en.wikipedia.org

Paragraph 6 Note: speed vs time graph and distance vs time graph used for analysis of acceleration; speed vs time graph: slanted straight line means constant acceleration; find acceleration through slope of the line; if objects accelerates at different amounts then graph is not a straight line; distance vs time graph: line is sloped × en.wikipedia.org511 × en.wikipedia.org
