Question

A motorcycle is speeding along at a velocity of120kph.Then, it changes to a velocity of 150 kph for 2 minutes.What is the motorcycle's averange acceleration?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

a=v-u/t

a=acceleration

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

t=tme taken

we need to convert from kph to ms⁻¹

v= 150*1000/60*60= 41.67ms⁻¹

u= 120*1000/60*60= 33.33ms⁻¹

t= 2*60= 120s

a=41.67-33.33/120

a=8.34/120

a=0.0694ms⁻²
