Answer:
0m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity of the boat = 8m/s
Final velocity = 8m/s
Time taken = 4s
Unknown:
Acceleration of the boat = ?
Solution:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
It is mathematically expressed as;
A =
A is the acceleration
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
Insert the parameters and solve;
A =
= 0m/s²
A) average acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity / time
= 7700 - 0 / 11
= 700ms^-2
B) force = mass x acceleration
= (3.05 x 105) x 700
= 320.25 x 700
= 224,175N
As it is given that the air bag deploy in time

total distance moved by the front face of the bag

Now we will use kinematics to find the acceleration




now as we know that

so we have

so the acceleration is 400g for the front surface of balloon
