The example of acceleration is:

- A bus traveling north at 25m/s

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time, and it is a vector quantity. It can be either positive or negative, depending on whether the object is speeding up or slowing down. In this case, the bus traveling north at 25m/s is an example of acceleration because it has a non-zero velocity and its velocity is changing with respect to time.
