Acceleration

The rate of change of velocity.

(g) – Approximately 9.8 m/s² downward near Earth's surface.

A sensor used to measure acceleration.

A drag force that opposes motion through air.

Total change in velocity divided by the time taken.

The distance travelled while a vehicle slows under braking.

Acceleration directed toward the centre of circular motion.

(Δv) – Final velocity minus initial velocity.

Velocity changing by the same amount each second.

A vehicle structure designed to deform during a collision and help increase stopping time while managing energy.
