Given,  

Initial Velocity (u) = 0 m/s  

Final Velocity (v) = 25.9 m/s  

Time (t) = 2.5 sec  

avg. acceleration = ?  

avg. acceleration = v-u/t  

avg = 25.9/2.5 = 10.36 m/s²  

avg = 10.36 m/s²

Answer:

Acceleration, a=10.4\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of the ride, u = 0 (at rest)

Final speed of the ride, v = 22.9 m/s

Time taken, t = 2.2 s

Let a is the acceleration of the passengers on this ride. It can be calculated using the formula of the acceleration as :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

a=\dfrac{22.9-0}{2.2}

a=10.4\ m/s^2

So, the time required to bring the car to a stop is 10.4\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

Pierre cycles at 4 miles per hour and travels a distance of 13 miles. How long
amm1812

Answer:

His journey took him 3 hours 15 minutes.

Explanation: 4 miles every hour. So 1 hr is equal to 4 miles, 2 hrs is equal to 8 miles, 3 hrs is equal to 12 miles. Now he just has 1 miles left, and since it takes him a hour to cycle 4 miles, 60 divided by 4 is 15. Therefore, 1 mile is equal to 15 minutes.
