Acceleration Formula

I know very little about maths and physics but I need a formula for a car accelerating. Acceleration is a vector quantity which is defined as "the rate at which an object changes its velocity." An object is accelerating if it is changing its velocity.The formula for acceleration is acceleration = velocity/time. The formula can calculate the current speed as it starts from zero, then accelerates at an even pace to drive straight while driving "d" and finishes at the exact time specified by "t". Look at acceleration speed formula below:

Acceleration Formula physics

Issac Newton is credited as the Founding formula of acceleration. He was the 1st scientist to determine that all moving objects had its own acceleration. In 1666, Newton's 1st law stated that the change between the initial velocity and final velocity, also known as acceleration, is "the result of a force acting on the body and change could be caused by either a change in magnitude or direction".

Acceleration formula Numerical example

Ifthe initial velocity is 25.7 m/s2 and the final velocity is 48.2 m/s2, what is the acceleration after 37 seconds have passed?

 
Real Life acceleration formula Example:

Acceleration formula real life example

 
Wendyis currently living in Tokyo, Japan. She recently visited Regina, whowas living in Kyoto, Japan. She took the Japanese Shinkansen line from Tokyo to Kyoto. The train that she rode moved at a final velocity of 31m/s. She was curious to find out what the acceleration speed of the train was, if it took 20 seconds to reach the final velocity from a standing point. If you can solve this task, you have understood theory.

2010-08-02 but how do we find the acceleration if we ain't got the initial speed
by marine
2010-07-30 please answer this. A car has uniformly accelerated from rest to a speed of 25m/s after traveling 75m. What is its acceleration?

2010-05-25 someone who knows what the hell their doing mind solving this problem for me. i have F=ma. my mass is 2000 lbs. but i dont have an acceleration or force. what i do have is a max speed that the vechicle can travel. which is 4567.24 mph. If you can solve for force, mind posting the answer and how you got there. Thanks
