the space on the track you gain your true speed ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The changeover zone is an area within each lane, 20m long, which begins at the 90m mark from the start of the previous leg and ends 110m from the same point. The baton must be exchanged within this zone. The acceleration zone begins 10m before the change over zone and ends at the start of the changeover zone. The outgoing athlete must start between the start of the acceleration zone and the end of the changeover zone (a length of 30m). The baton is not allowed to be exchanged within the acceleration zone The purpose of the acceleration zone is to allow the outgoing athlete to reach close to top speed as the baton is exchanged. This is good as it is the speed of the baton that is important.

Is acceleration the change of distance over time?
No, acceleration is the change in speed over time.
What is the change in velocity over time?
acceleration a----->velocity=acceleration x time: v=a x t
What does acceleration is uniform mean?
It means that the acceleration does not change.
How is speed and acceleration related?
Acceleration is the change in velocity ("speed") over time.
What is the physics definition for acceleration?
Acceleration is a change in velocity over a period of time.
Acceleration is the change in distance over time True or false?
False. Acceleration is a change of speed or direction over time.
What is acceleration a change in over time?
Velocity.
Acceleration is any change in the state of motion of an object?
Acceleration is a change in either the magnitude or direction of velocity, over time. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration
When will you say a body is in uniform acceleration non uniform acceleration?
Uniform (or constant) acceleration means that the acceleration doesn't change over time.
This is calculated by change in velocity over time?
Acceleration.
What is defined as the change in velocity over time?
Acceleration
What is the definition for the rate of motion?
The rate of change of motion is known as acceleration. Acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time. Velocity is the rate of change of position, or change in position over change in time.
