In mechanics, an acceleration is a change in velocity and is calculated as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time. Acceleration is a part of the study of motion and is one of several components of kinematics. Acceleration has magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. Fundamentally, an acceleration is any time an object changes speed or direction. The tange
