Answer:
Acceleration, a = 6 m/s²
Explanation:
It is given that,
The police department is excited to have some new motorcycle units. one officer said that these motorcycles can go from 0 miles per hour to 80 miles per hour in just 6 seconds.
Initial speed of motorcycle, u = 0
Final speed, v = 80 miles/h = 35.8 m/s
Time taken, t = 6 s
The officer is describing the motorcycle's acceleration and it can be calculated by :
[tex]a=\dfrac{35.8\ m/s}{6\ s}[/tex]
a = 5.966 m/s²
or a = 6 m/s²
Hence, the acceleration of the motorcycle is 6 m/s².
