Answer:
3 m/sec(squared)
Explanation:
a=change in velocity/time
a=v-u/t
a=36-0=36/12
a=3m/s(squared)
The acceleration is 3 m/s².
To calculate the acceleration, the velocities given are:
Initial velocity u = 0 m/s,
Final velocity v = 36 m/s,
Time, t = 12 seconds.
Definition:
Acceleration can be defined as the total change in velocity, i.e., change in final velocity to the change in initial velocity to the total time taken.
Acceleration is a vector quantity as it has both magnitude and direction.
Formula for Acceleration, a = (( v - u) /t ) m/s².
[tex]\overline{a} = \frac{v - v_0}{t} = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}[/tex]
v = Final velocity
u = Initial velocity
t = Time taken
Substitute all the given values in the formula,
a = ( 36 - 0) / 12
= 36 / 12
a = 3 m/s².
Thus, the truck's acceleration is calculated as 3 m/s².
