Answer:
Acceleration:
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object is equal to the rate of change of velocity:
where
u is the initial velocity
v is the final velocity
t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v
For the space probe in this problem, we have:
u = 100 ft/s (initial velocity)
v = 5000 ft/s (final velocity)
t = 0.5 s (time taken)
Therefore, the acceleration is
Answer:
0.0928km/min (4dp)
Explanation:
To find the jogger's speed in km per minute, we just need to divide the number of km jogged by the time in minutes it took to jog that distance. This will give us the distance they jogged every minute which is their speed.
4km in 32 minutes:
4/32 = 0.125km/min
2km in 22 minutes:
2/22 = 0.091 (3dp)km/min
1km in 16 minutes:
0.0625km/min
Now to find the average speed of these 3 speeds, we just add them all together and divide by how many values there are (3 values).
Average (mean) =
Average = 0.2785/3
Average speed of jogger = 0.0928 (4dp) km/min
Hope this helped!
