Acceleration (a) is the change in velocity (Δv) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation a = Δv/Δt. This allows you to measure how fast velocity changes in meters per second squared (m/s^2). Acceleration is also a vector quantity, so it includes both magnitude and direction.
<u>Solve</u>
We know initial velocity (u = 16), velocity (v = 120) and acceleration (a = ?)
We first need to solve the velocity equation for time (t):
