Acceleration

$\mathbf a$

The acceleration $\mathbf a$ of a body $M$ is defined as the first derivative of the velocity $\mathbf v$ of $M$ relative to a given point of reference with respect to time $t$:

$\mathbf a = \dfrac {\d \mathbf v} {\d t}$

The usual symbol used to denote the acceleration of a body is $\mathbf a$.

The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\mathbf a\) is \mathbf a .
