The rate at which acceleration is changing.

The slope of an acceleration-time graph represents the rate of change of acceleration over time. A steeper slope indicates a faster rate of acceleration, while a less steep slope indicates a slower rate of acceleration.
On a speed vs. time graph, acceleration is represented by a non-zero slope. If the slope of the graph is increasing, it indicates positive acceleration (speeding up). If the slope is decreasing, it indicates negative acceleration (slowing down).
Speed is represented by the slope of a distance-time graph, where steeper slopes indicate faster speed. Acceleration is represented by the slope of a speed-time graph, where a steeper slope indicates a greater acceleration.
Yes!
No, the slope of a speed-versus-time graph represents the rate of change of speed, not acceleration. Acceleration is represented by the slope of a velocity-versus-time graph.
The slope of a speed-time graph represents acceleration. A steeper slope indicates a greater rate of change in speed, which means higher acceleration. Conversely, a shallower slope indicates lower acceleration.
