"Rate of change" means how quickly something changes. Examples in physics include a speed as a rate of change of position - if your position changes 10 meters every second, then that (10 meters/second) is your rate of change of position, or your velocity. Or if your income increases by a thousand dollars a year, then that's the rate of change of your income - how quickly your income changes.

What is the geometrical meaning of second derivative?
The first derivative is the rate of change, and the second derivative is the rate of change of the rate of change.
How is the steepness of the line is related to the rate of change?
the steepness of the line is the slope of the line which is the rate of change; the steeper the slope, the faster the rate of change
Why do take derivative?
To find rate of change. Two common examples are: rate of change in position = velocity and rate of change of velocity = acceleration.
What is the rate of change in position called?
Rate of change in position is called velocity.
What does a shallow slope on a graph say about the rate of change?
A low rate of change.
Is acceleration the rate of change of the rate of change of position?
no its speed that definds the rate change of position
What is the percent rate of change?
The rate of change is the change divided by the original value. This answer, converted to a percentage is the percentage rate of change.
What is rate of acceleration?
The rate of change of velocity. (As velocity is the rate of change of position.)
Why does the rate of heartbeat change?
Why does the rate of heartbeat change?
What is a rate of change expressed as a percent?
It is the percentage rate of change!
What is the geometrical meaning of second derivative?
The first derivative is the rate of change, and the second derivative is the rate of change of the rate of change.
How is the steepness of the line is related to the rate of change?
the steepness of the line is the slope of the line which is the rate of change; the steeper the slope, the faster the rate of change
What is the rate of change of something?
Depending on the context, the rate of change may be called different things. In algebra, we recognize rate of change as slope. Or, more simply, change in y over change in x. In calculus, the rate of change is the slope of the line tangent to the curve. In terms of chemistry, the rate of change would refer to the reaction rate.

What can change the rate of reaction of enzymes?
Heat can change the rate of reaction
Is the rate of change for a vertical line 0?
no. the rate of change is undefined.
Is rate of change the same as slope?
Yes, Rate of change is slope
