Answer : Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity.

Explanation :

Acceleration : It is defined as the rate of change in the velocity per unit time. Acceleration is a vector quantity that means it depends on the magnitude and the direction of an object. The S.I unit of acceleration is,
m/s^2

The formula of acceleration will be,


Acceleration=\frac{\text{Change in velocity}}{\text{Time taken}}\\\\a=(v_(final)-v_(initial))/(t)

Hence, acceleration is the rate of change in velocity.
