\(gradient = \frac{change~in~y}{change~in~x} = \frac{change~in~distance}{change~in~time} = \frac{change~in~metres}{change~in~seconds} = m/s.\) The gradient of a ...

Acceleration close accelerationThe rate of change in speed (or velocity) is measured in metres per second squared. Acceleration = change of velocity ÷ time taken. is the rate of change of velocity. It ...
