They are definitely NOT the same. Acceleration is not velocity; acceleration is the RATE OF CHANGE of velocity. In symbols: a = dv/dt, which basically means that you divide the difference of velocity by the time, for a small time interval.
Acceleration and velocity are both vectors.
Velocity or speed is the rate of motion across a distance, while acceleration is the rate of change in velocity, i.e. speeding up (or in deceleration, slowing down).
No.
acceleration = (final_velocity - initial_velocity) ÷ time
Don't forget to divide by the time!
no
Both are vectors. But acceleration and velocity have different dimensions. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
Any falling object has acceleration and velocity vectors in the same direction.
No. V=v0 +at is the formula for velocity, the acceleration 'a' can be the same but the initial velocity v0 may be different. If v0 is the same for the two automobiles , the velocity would be the same.
For a start, acceleration doesn't even have the same units as velocity: acceleration is a velocity divided by time, so while speed or velocity have units of [distance]/[time], acceleration has units of [distance]/[time squared]
acceleration=ratio of change in velocity in a specific direction to time. speed=ratio of distance to time.

The velocity and acceleration can have the same numeric value, but the units will be different. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No it is not possible. Because so long there is acceleration then the velocity has to change either in magnitude or in direction or in both. So it is not at all possible for acceleration and velocity to be the same simultaneously.
No. Speed is the magnitude of velocity and acceleration is the change of velocity in time.
Any falling object has acceleration and velocity vectors in the same direction.
No. V=v0 +at is the formula for velocity, the acceleration 'a' can be the same but the initial velocity v0 may be different. If v0 is the same for the two automobiles , the velocity would be the same.
The velocity stays the same, it is constant
no.
As long as acceleration is zero, the object's velocity is constant.
Deceleration. Negative acceleration = Velocity is decreasing by time. Positive acceleration = Velocity is increasing by time. Zero acceleration = Velocity is the same by time.
Yes, velocity is acceleration x time. If acceleration is the same, velocity can be different as it changes with time. For example a car accelerating with constant acceleration will have a different velocity after 5 seconds than it will have at 2 seconds.
For a start, acceleration doesn't even have the same units as velocity: acceleration is a velocity divided by time, so while speed or velocity have units of [distance]/[time], acceleration has units of [distance]/[time squared]
For the most part, yes; once at terminal velocity, there is no acceleration, so it has direction.
