What is magnitude of acceleration?

magnitude of acceleration=change of velocity/time invertal


What is another name for acceleration when velocity increase?

When the magnitude of velocity increases, many people call that "speeding up".


An increase of the magnitude of velocity is called?

It is called acceleration.


Is acceleration a quantity of vector?

yes, Acceleration is vector quatity!!. Its has both magnitude and direction


Does acceleration have a magnitude only?

No, acceleration has both magnitude and direction. Magnitude refers to the rate of change of an object's velocity, while direction specifies which way the object is accelerating.


What is the minimum magnitude of acceleration?

Zero is.


Which acceleration has larger magnitude?

The acceleration with the larger magnitude is the one with a greater numerical value, regardless of its direction. Acceleration is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction, but when comparing magnitudes, only the numerical values are considered.


Is force and acceleration are scalar quantities?

No, force and acceleration are vector quantities. Force is the product of mass and acceleration, and it includes both magnitude and direction. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object, which also has both magnitude and direction.

Rate of change of speed?

magnitude of acceleration


Are speed and acceleration the same?

No. Speed is the magnitude of velocity and acceleration is the change of velocity in time.
