  • Understanding Acceleration: Key Variables & Calculation
    To calculate acceleration, you need to know:

    1. The initial velocity (vi) of the object in meters per second (m/s).

    2. The final velocity (vf) of the object in m/s.

    3. The time (t) it takes for the object to change velocity, in seconds (s).

    The formula for calculating acceleration (a) is:

    ```

    a = (vf - vi) / t

    ```

    Where:

    - a is acceleration in m/s²

    - vf is final velocity in m/s

    - vi is initial velocity in m/s

    - t is time in seconds

    By substituting the values of vi, vf, and t into the formula, you can calculate the acceleration of the object.
