Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Acceleration is rate of change of ____
A
position
B
time
C
velocity
D
speed
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. Velocity is a vector, which means it contains a magnitude (a numerical value) and a direction. So the velocity can be changed either by changing the speed or by changing the direction of motion (or both).

Detailed explanation-2: -Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over a set period of time. You calculate acceleration by dividing the change in velocity by the change in time.

Detailed explanation-3: -In physics, jerk, also known as jolt, surge, or lurch, is the rate of change of acceleration; that is, the derivative of acceleration with respect to time. Jerk is a vector quantity as it has both direction and magnitude.

Detailed explanation-4: -The rate of change of velocity is known as Acceleration.
