Answer 1

Answer:

When an object changes speed (increases/decreases) it results in acceleration/de acceleration, its velocity also changes.

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity.An object can accelerate when speed increases, decreases or direction changes. All these instances involves a change in velocity.Velocity is a vector quantity thus it has magnitude and the direction.Acceleration due to change in direction is centripetal acceleration.The expression for finding acceleration is;

a=change in velocity/change in time

a=Δv/Δt in m/s²
