time¶: time.

Symbol:: t
Latex:: \(t\)
Dimension:: time

acceleration¶: acceleration of the body as a function of time.

Symbol:: a(t)
Latex:: \(a{\left(t \right)}\)
Dimension:: acceleration

speed¶: speed of the body as a function of time.

Symbol:: v(t)
Latex:: \(v{\left(t \right)}\)

definition¶

a(t) = Derivative(v(t), t)

Latex:: \[a{\left(t \right)} = \frac{d}{d t} v{\left(t \right)}\]
