Speed - is the distance traveled divided by the time needed to travel the distance

Acceleration - is the change in velocity divided by the amount of time required for the change to occur (speeding up or slowing down)

SPEED = DISTANCE (6M) TIME (3S) = 2m/s

ACCELERATION = FINAL SPEED-INITIAL SPEED(8m/s - 2m/s)=6ms =.5m/s2

TIME (12s)

What is the difference between speed and acceleration?
