The complete question is:
Xander was traveling at a final velocity of 4.5 m/s for 3.5 seconds. Finley was traveling at a final velocity of 3.6 m/s for 4.2 seconds. Max was traveling at a final velocity of 7.3 m/s for 1.2 seconds. They all started at the same location from rest. Which lists them from least to most acceleration?
Answer:
Order from least to most acceleration is Finely to Xander to Max
Explanation:
In this scenario we are to calculate the acceleration of each person and list them from least to most acceleration.
Acceleration is defined as change in velocity with time
Mathematically
Acceleration= Change in velocity ÷ change in time
Xander's Acceleration= 4.5 ÷ 3.5= 1.2857m/s²
Finely's acceleration= 3.6÷ 4.2= 0.857m/s²
Max's acceleration= 7.3 ÷ 1.2= 6.0833m/s²
Therefore increasing order of acceleration is Finely to Xander to Max
