how fast a speed is changing at a specific instant
B
how fast a velocity is changing at a specific instant
C
how fast a direction is changing at a specific instant
D
all of the aboce
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The rate at which velocity changes using both speed and direction with respect to time at a particular interval is called average acceleration. Ans. Instantaneous acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes using both speed and direction with respect to time such that the time interval goes to zero.

Detailed explanation-2: -Instantaneous acceleration is defined as. The ratio of change in velocity during a given time interval such that the time interval goes to zero.

Detailed explanation-3: -The velocity of an object at a particular instani of time or at a particular point of its path is called instantaneous velocity . Instantaneous Accelaration. It is the acceleration at any instant and is defined as the limiting vaue of the average acceleration when the time interval t becomes very small.

Detailed explanation-4: -In more simple words, the velocity of an object at that instant of time is known as instantaneous velocity. Thus, the definition is given as “The velocity of an object under motion at a specific point of time.” If the object has uniform velocity then the instantaneous velocity may be the same as its standard velocity.

Detailed explanation-5: -Similarly, we can say that the instantaneous acceleration of a particle is given by the derivative of the velocity function. On first derivation, we obtain what is called as instantaneous velocity v and derivation of the velocity expression with respect to time we obtain acceleration or instantaneous acceleration.
