```
a = (v_f - v_i) / t
```
Where:
* a = acceleration in meters per second squared (m/s²)
* v_f = final velocity in meters per second (m/s)
* v_i = initial velocity in meters per second (m/s)
* t = time in seconds (s)
So, to calculate acceleration, you need to know the final velocity, the initial velocity, and the time.
