Acceleration explained in an easy to understand way:

Acceleration Simple Definition

Imagine you're trying to get comfortable in bed, constantly shifting your position to find that perfect spot. This is similar to how acceleration works in physics; just as you change your position to achieve comfort, an object's velocity changes over time to reach a different speed or direction. In this analogy, your movement in bed represents the change in velocity, while the time it takes to find that cozy position is akin to the time over which acceleration occurs.
