Question

how do you calculate acceleration

Answer 1

A=f/m
Example a=10/2
A=5

Answer 2

Answer:

As we know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity

So in order to find the acceleration of a given system we need to find the change in velocity of the given system with respect to time.

So here the formula is given as

$a = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{\Delta t}$

so in order to find the acceleration we need

$v_2$ = final velocity

$v_1$ = initial velocity

$\Delta t$ = time interval

so here we can say that acceleration calculation must need the change in velocity and the time taken to change the velocity both and the ration of this will give us the value of the acceleration
