10 - What is Acceleration? (Learn Units & Average Acceleration Formula in Physics)

Learn the average acceleration formula by means of a conceptual example. We will learn that acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity function. Because of this, the units are meters per second per second, or m/s^2.

Acceleration amounts to how many meters per second you gain in velocity every second. We use this concept to solve every physics problem that involves motion of an object.

You are opening my brains sir, this Is Mukuka from Zambia

[luwluwstarshyne]

Thank you, you're making it so simple and efficient

[davidbecker]

This professor is very thorough. Thank you. Wish I had you as a prof (35 years ago!)

The BEST TEACHER IN THE WORLD THAT I KNOWN

[Persian]

Wonderful explanation I love this professor.👍🏻

[soumitasmakeover]

Sir, your explanation is very nice. I like your your channel very much....

[history]

i found this topic very hard as i have a test in a few hours, this helped much more, your an amazing teacher! great respect sir!

[VincillaWomki]

Nice explanation. ..need such physics teachers in png too.

[hemarajue]

I always mess up with the concepts of velocity and acceleration. This lesson cleared it for me.
Sir, could we compute the acceleration as follows?
Suppose a vehicle is moving with a velocity of 10km/s and after 5 seconds its velocity is 20km/s. Acceleration= (20-10)/5=2m/s^2. This means velocity is increased by twice every second.

Graet explanation
I wish my physics professor were as good as you.

[saraime]

Thank you so much
It really helped me!!!

[jmoak]

I cannot find videos 11 and 12... It seems to jump from video 10 to video 13 on instantaneous acceleration.

[adiliraliyev]

Could negative acceleration be something that takes more energy to accelerate?

[MichaelHarrisIreland]

You made it so interesting, I stopped following the Russia/Ukraine war for half an hour. ....from Ireland. Your videos are so good, thanks.

[thefreak]

If they give initial velocity and final velocity and they told to find acceleration which formula we should use

[robzworkz]

You can say V is "not" moving yet. V "not".
