    The time rate of change of displacement is called velocity and it is a vector quantity.

    The time rate of change of velocity is called acceleration, it is also a vector quantity.

    A body can have zero velocity and non zero acceleration.

    For example, when you throw a ball vertically upwards with some velocity, the ball reaches to maximum height. At maximum height its velocity is zero but an acceleration is acting on the ball which is the acceleration due to gravity and which acts vertically downwards always.
