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

The initial height of the first body is given by:

where
g is the gravitational acceleration
t is the time it takes for the body to reach the ground
Substituting t=1 s, we find

The second body takes takes t=2 s to reach the ground, so it was located at an initial height of

The second body started its fall 1 second before the first body, therefore when the second body started its fall, the first body was located at its initial height, i.e. at 4.9 m from the ground.
Answer:
v = 50.5 m/s
Explanation:
F = (m)(^v/^t)
115N = (0.04551kg)(v/(0.020s))
2,526.917161 m/s² = v/(0.020s)
v = 50.53834322 m/s
v = 50.5 m/s
PE = (mass) (gravity) (height)
PE = (0.005 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (5 m)
<em>PE = 0.245 Joule</em>
