Question

The change in velocity during a measurable time interval, divided by the time interval, is the _____.

Answer 1

Hello!


Let's put it into symbols:

Change in velocity = $\mathsf{V_f - V_i=\Delta V}$
A measurable interval: $\mathsf{\Delta t}$

This division is:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}}$

We can recognize this as the Average Acceleration $\mathsf{a_m}$
