A car increases its speed from 9.6 meters per second to 11.2 meters per second in 4.0 seconds. the average acceleration of the car during this 4.0-second interval is answer

Respuesta :

In physics, acceleration is defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time. The S.I unit for acceleration is meter per second square [m/s^2].
Acceleration = change in velocity / time
From the question given above,
Acceleration, A =?
Initial velocity, F1 = 9.6 m/s
Final velocity, F2 = 11.2 m/s
Time, t = 4 s
A = [F2- F1] /4 = [11.2 - 9.6] / 4 
A = 1.6 / 4 = 0.4
Therefore, the average acceleration of the car is 0.4 m/s^2.

Avg Acceleration is

[tex]\rm 0.4\;m/sec^2[/tex]

Step by Step Solution :

Given :

Final Speed, v = 11.2 m/sec

Initial Speed, u = 9.6 m/sec

Time, t = 4 sec

Calculation :

We know that,

[tex]\rm Avg\;Acceleration = \dfrac{v - u }{t}[/tex]

[tex]\rm Avg \; Acceleration = \dfrac{11.2-9.6}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\rm Avg\;Acceleration =\dfrac{1.6}{4}=0.4 \;m/sec^2[/tex]

Therefore avg acceleration is

[tex]\rm 0.4\;m/sec^2[/tex]
