Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
(TRUE) The statement is True.
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. Mathematically,it is expressed as $a = \frac{v - u}{t}$,where $v$ is the final velocity,$u$ is the initial velocity,and $t$ is the time taken.
