Answer:
v= 13 m/s
Explanation:
Velocity is defined as the derivative of displacement with respect to time
v= ds/dt
Known data
s(t) = 5t + 2t² : distance that the ball has rolled after t seconds
vi= 5 m/s : initial velocity
t= 2 s
Problem develoment
s(t) = 5t + 2t²
v= ds/dt= 5 + 4t : velocity of the ball in function of the time
We replace t =2 s in the equation of velocity
v= 5 + 4(2)
v= 13 m/s : velocity after 2 seconds
Seconds squared is the time unit of acceleration. It represents the change in distance units per second per second. For example, 3 m/sec² means a distance covering 3 meters in the first second, then 9 meters in the 2nd second, and 37 meters in the third second. (3^1, 3^2, 3^3).
Acceleration is part of Newton's 2nd law: force = mass x acceleration. Units of work: joule = kg·m²/s², and power: watts = kg·m²/s³ all contain accelerations.
Answer:
v = 10 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m
Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s
We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,
v = d/t
Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.
