How do velocity and acceleration differ?
 a. They are the same thing.
  b. Velocity has direction but acceleration does not.
  c. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, while velocity is the rate of change of displacement.
  d. Average acceleration can be measured but average velocity cannot.
  e. Velocity is the rate at which acceleration changes.

Question 2

 a. will depend on the direction of your velocity.
  b. will be a lot less than the magnitude of your average velocity.
  c. will be a lot greater than the magnitude of your average velocity.
  d. will depend on how far you finished from where you started.
  e. will be the same as the magnitude of your average velocity.
