Speed is (distance covered) divided by (time taken to cover the distance).

Velocity is a speed and its direction.

Acceleration is any change of velocity.

Are speed and acceleration the same?

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


What is one similarity to speed velocity acceleration?

Speed, velocity, and acceleration all have momentum.


What are the importance of speed velocity and acceleration in sports?

what are important speed, velocity and acceleration in several sports


What does acceleration have to do with velocity?

Velocity is speed in a given direction Acceleration is the rate in which you change velocity.


How are acceleration and speed alike?

They are not alike but they are related. A positive acceleration means an increase in velocity (speed). A negative acceleration means a decrease in velocity. Velocity (speed) has the dimensions of distance / time. Acceleration has the dimensions of distance/time2 or velocity/time.


Is it speed acceleration velocity when a softball is hit into the outfield?

In that case, you have all three - speed, acceleration, velocity.


Why is the velocity 0 when your speed is constant?

It's not. If you speed is constant (but not zero), then your velocity won't be zero, either.You may be confusing this with the following: If your VELOCITY (not your speed) is constant, then your ACCELERATION is zero. Acceleration refers to how quickly velocity changes, so if velocity doesn't change at all, acceleration is zero.


How is increasing speed acceleration?

By definition acceleration is the change in velocity (speed).


Compare velocity from acceleration?

Velocity is a constant traveling speed. Acceleration is increasing traveling speed (variation of speed over time)


Can a body have zero velocity and still acceleration?

No. A velocity indicates a speed and direction. An acceleration is a change in speed or direction.


What kind of speed has no acceleration?

A constant speed has no acceleration. When an object is moving at a constant speed, its velocity remains the same over time, and there is no change in acceleration.


What is the difference between speed velocity acceleration?

Speed is the rate of change in distance, whereas velocity is speed and direction of travel. Acceleration is the change in velocity (including direction).
