Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes with time. For example if an object was falling with no air resistance the only force acting upon it would be gravity therefore the vertical acceleration of the object would be -9.8 m/s^2. Also isn’t this supposed to be a physics question and not biology lol

Answer:

The rate at which an object's velocity changes with respect to time is called acceleration. Accelerations are measured in terms of vectors. The orientation of an object's acceleration is given by the orientation of the net force acting on that object.
