What is increase in speed?
acceleration
Definition of acceleration?
increase rate in speed of acceleration
Will acceleration only speed up an object?
In popular usage, "acceleration" means an increase in speed. In physics, any change in velocity is called an "acceleration".In popular usage, "acceleration" means an increase in speed.

When a body undergoes an acceleration does its speed increase or decrease?
Both. Acceleration is a change in speed.
What is an increase in speed callled?
acceleration
An increase in speed is sometimes called?
acceleration
What has to happen to a car's acceleration and velocity for a car's speed to increase and have a positive acceleration?
The velocity has to increase in a positive direction. The increase in velocity in a positive direction is a positive acceleration.
Can acceleration change with out increase or decrease speed?
yes the 3 types of acceleration are increased speed decrease speed or change in direction.
When acceleration and velocity are in the same direction the speed will?
In that case, the speed will increase.
How are velocity and acceleration different?
acceleration is the increase of speed in a moving object. velocity is the speed and direction of a moving object.
If a ball rolls down a hill does its speed or acceleration increase?
If you roll a ball up a hill it undergoes negative upward and positive downward acceleration.
How can acceleration be constant if it is an increase in speed?
Exactly the same way that the speed can be constant but the distance keeps increasing.If the acceleration happens to be an increase in speed, then "constant" accelerationmeans that the speed will increase just as much in the 7th minute, for example,as it increased in the 4th minute, for example, etc.Acceleration can be the rate at which speed changes. So if the acceleration is constant,then the speed is changing at a constant rate.(Note: Acceleration doesn't have to be a change of speed. It can also be a changeof direction, at constant speed.)
