In this chapter, we will be learning about speed and acceleration. Speed is a measure of how fast an object is moving. It is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken. We will learn how to calculate speed and understand the concept of uniform and non-uniform speed. Uniform speed means that an object is moving at a constant rate, while non-uniform speed means that the object is changing its speed. Acceleration, on the other hand, is the rate at which an object's speed changes. We will learn how to calculate acceleration and understand its importance in motion.
