A truck was traveling at 16.6 miles per second and accelerates at a rate of 2.0 meters per second squared then time is required for the truck to reach a speed of 25 miles per second is 6759 s.

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the rate of change in displacement while acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. Acceleration may be positive or negative. Acceleration is positive when the velocity of the object is increases and it is negative when velocity of the object is decreases. Negative acceleration is also called deceleration.

Mathematically

a = \frac{(v_{f} - v_{i})}{t}

Where a is the acceleration of the object, v_{f} is the final velocity of the object and  v_{i} is the initial velocity of the object. t is equal to time taken.

Given data:

v_{f} = 25 miles/s

v_{i} = 16.6 miles/s

a = 2.0 m/s²

t = ?

As velocities and acceleration given in different units, So we need to convert to obtain same units. Here we convert unit of acceleration  from m/s² to miles/s².

1 m/s² = 0.000621371192 miles/s²

2 m/s² = 0.00124274238 miles/s²

So,

a = 0.00124274238 miles/s²

Apply formula

a =\frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t}

t = \frac{(v_{f} - v_{i})}{a}

t = \frac{(25 - 16.6)}{0.00124274238}

t = 6759 s

irina1246 [14]

Answer & Explanation:

Crashing into the asteroid would cause the satellite to slow down, stop, or reverse direction, because it is a force in the opposite direction to the satellite's motion. Whichever crash was a stronger force would cause it to change motion more. It takes a stronger force to change the velocity of a more massive object.
