Accelerated motion

Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-000059

The motion of an object where its velocity changes over time, meaning it is either speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. This change in velocity is quantified by acceleration, which is a vector quantity indicating both magnitude and direction. In mechanical systems, acceleration is measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).
