Question

A vehicle starts to move from the rest gets an acceleration of 5 m/s2 within 2

Answer 1

Answer:

The acceleration = change in velocity ÷ time = 5 m/s ÷ 2 s = 2.5 m/s^2

Answer 2

Answer:

When an object moves in a straight line with a constant acceleration, you can calculate its acceleration if you know how much its velocity changes and how long this takes.

The formula is,

Acceleration = change in velocity / time taken

The equation for acceleration can also be represented as:

a = (v-u) \ t

The change in velocity v – u = 5 – 0 = 5 m/s.

The acceleration = change in velocity ÷ time = 5 m/s ÷ 2 s = 2.5 m/s^2
