Answer:

Acceleration equals the change in velocity divided by time.

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by :

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

Where

v is the final speed

u is the initial speed

t is the time taken

It is a vector quantity. Its SI unit is m/s^2

(v-u) is called the change in speed of the object. So, the correct statement is ''Acceleration equals the change in velocity divided by time''.

The reason that oscillating systems are good to use for clocks is:
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

A. The period of an oscillation does not depend upon amplitude.

Explanation:

The period of a spring-mass system is:

T = 1/f = 2π√(m/k)

where f is the frequency, m is the mass, and k is the spring constant.

The answer isn't B.  There are no frictionless systems in the real world.

The answer isn't C or D.  As shown, the frequency is a function of both the mass and the spring constant.

The answer isn't E.  Turning motion into heat is not an advantage for a clock.

The correct answer is A.  The period of the system does not depend on the amplitude.

How would the mathematical model change if the direction that the object traveled was reversed
victus00 [196]
A line that is falling towards the x axis represents an object that is negatively accelerating, or slowing down. When the line hits the x axis, the object has stopped moving. If the graph continues below the x axis, the object has changed direction and is moving backwards at increasing velocity.
