Understanding Velocity and Acceleration
Velocity
Average Velocity: The total displacement divided by the total time taken. It gives an overall measure of how fast an object is moving in a specific direction over a time interval.
Instantaneous Velocity: The velocity of an object at a specific moment in time. It's calculated as the derivative of the position function with respect to time.
Acceleration
Average Acceleration: The change in velocity divided by the time taken for that change. It measures how quickly velocity changes over a time interval.
Instantaneous Acceleration: The acceleration at a specific moment in time. It's calculated as the derivative of the velocity function with respect to time.
