Understanding Acceleration

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. It's calculated as:

* Acceleration (a) = (Final Velocity (v) - Initial Velocity (u)) / Time (t)

Applying the Formula

* Initial Velocity (u) = 1 m/s

* Final Velocity (v) = 3 m/s

* Time (t) = 1 s

Calculation:

* a = (3 m/s - 1 m/s) / 1 s

* a = 2 m/s / 1 s

* a = 2 m/s²

Answer: Your acceleration is 2 m/s².
