\( v_c \) = Velocity Rate of Change |
\(ft\;/\;sec^2\) |
\(m\;/\;s^2\) |
\( s \) = Displacement |
\( ft \) |

\( t \) = Velocity Change Time |
\( sec \) |
\( s \) |
The rate of change in velocity, abbreviated as \(v_c\), is the first derivative of velocity, the second derivative of position or the instantaneous change in velocity. In physics, it is known as acceleration.
