Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity
To define acceleration, We need to know more about motion.
Motion: This can be defined as the change in position of a body from one point to another. When an object accelerates, it undergoes motion.
<u>Definition</u>
Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of velocity. The S.I unit of acceleration is meter-per-squared seconds. (m/s²)
The formula of acceleration is
- a = (v-u)/t................. Equation 1
⇒ Where:
- a = acceleration
- u = initial velocity
- v = final velocity
- t = time
Hence, Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

Answer:
16 km
Explanation:
Drawing a right triangle to model the problem helps. I started by drawing the lines of the triangle to model the hiker's journey- a vertical straight line for 11 km north and then a horizontal line connected to the top of it for 11 km east; I then drew the hypothenuse to connect the two lines.
The hypothenuse is what we have to solve for, so we will use the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Since both distances are 11 km both a and b in the equation are 11.
11^2 + 11^2 = c^2
121 + 121 = c^2
242 = c^2
c = 15.56
Rounding the answer makes it 16 km for the hiker's magnitude of displacement.
Answer:
50.3N
Explanation:
Work done = force x distance
422J. = force x 8.39m
÷8.39 both side to get force
Force is 50.3N to 1 d.p.
Check:
50.3 x 8.39=422.017J
Same as 422J to 1 d.p
Winds are deflected to the right as they move into a low pressure area in the Northern Hemisphere.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Winds decide the motion of ocean currents which forms the surface waves in the Earth's atmosphere to maintain the pressure region. The motion of ocean currents is based on Coriolis force which states the direction of motion of an object in a rotating system.
In the case of Earth, the Coriolis force has an effect on the ocean currents which are deflected from maximum to minimum pressure region in a curved path. So the winds formed by the ocean currents will generally get deflected at the right as they move into a low pressure area at the Northern Hemisphere from the high pressure region.
Answer:
Explanation:
The total travel time Suzette experiences is the sum of the times in each hallway. Using
time = distance/speed
we can add the times.
(35.0 m)/(3.50 m/s) +(48.0 m)/(1.20 m/s) +(60 m)/(5.0 m/s)
= 10 s + 40 s + 12 s
= 62 s
It takes Suzette 62 seconds to get to class. She does not beat the bell.
