Suppose you increase your walking speed from 4m/s to 12m/s in a period of 1 s. What is your acceleration?

Physics

We use the following formula to determine our acceleration:
acceleration = \frac{(final velocity) - (initial velocity)}{time} = \frac{change of velocity}{time}
We normally use letters in this formula, which gives us:
a = \frac{v}{t}

Filling in this formula gives us:
Δv (change of velocity) = 12 - 4 = 8 m/s
t = 1s
a = \frac{8}{1} = 8 m/s^2
So our answer: the acceleration is 8m/ s^{2}

1. Why is it easier to change the motion of a large toy car than a small toy car?
insens350 [35]
Because it is acted upon by balanced forces.

Toy cars use a variety of mechanisms to make them go, but they all store up potential energy. Although the elastic material inside is usually steel and not rubber, the principle is the same. By changing the shape of the material (usually a coil of metal) energy is stored and then released as motion.

What is the frequency of a sound wave having a velocity of 341 meters/second and a wavelength of 0.8 meters?
Brums [2.3K]
We know, Frequency = speed / wavelength 
f = 341 / 0.8
f = 426.25 Hz

In short, Your Answer would be 426.25 Hz

Hope this helps!
