Question

How is acceleration calculated?

-acceleration equals the change in velocity divided by time

-acceleration equals distance divided by time

-acceleration equals speed multiplied by time

-acceleration equals velocity

Answer 1

Answer:

Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time

Explanation:

This is the correct answer because distance divided by time is the position. Speed multiplied by time is the distance. And acceleration is not just velocity, but the change in velocity over time.

Answer 2

Acceleration equals the change in velocity divided by time.

That's the "time rate of change" of velocity.
