Acceleration
AccelerationNotes:
When an object's velocity changes, it accelerates. Acceleration shows the change in velocity in a unit time. Velocity is measured in meters per second, m/s, so acceleration is measured in (m/s)/s, or m/s2, which can be both positive and negative.
An object falling has an acceleration of 9.8 m/s/s.

An everyday example of acceleration is a car speeding up.
