I can calculate the acceleration and deceleration of objects.

Show transcript
Acceleration is equal to the amount that velocity changes in one second. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Average acceleration = change of velocity/time [a = (v-u)/t] An object that is slowing down is decelerating. An object that is decelerating has a negative acceleration.
