Average, Instantaneous, and Constant Acceleration

Average acceleration is calculated by dividing the change in velocity by the time interval, providing an overall measure of how quickly an object's velocity changes over a period. Instantaneous acceleration represents the rate of change of velocity at a specific moment in time, offering a precise snapshot of acceleration at that exact instant. Constant acceleration occurs when an object's velocity changes at a steady rate over time, resulting in a straight line on a velocity-time graph. Understanding these three types of acceleration is crucial for analyzing various motion scenarios, from simple uniform motion to more complex situations involving changing velocities.
