<u>Motion with Constant Acceleration</u>
A body moves with constant acceleration when the speed changes uniformly in time. The equation used to find the final speed vf is
Where vo is the initial speed, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.
The cyclist has an initial speed of vo=10 miles/hour and ends up at vf=20 miles/hour in t=5 seconds.
Both speeds are given in miles/hour and we must convert it to m/s:
1 mile/hour = 0.44704 m/s
10 mile/hour = 4.47 m/s
20 mile/hour = 8.94 m/s
The acceleration is calculated by solving for a:
Answer:
a) 0 metres
b) From time 0 s to 10 s , the car was accelerated. Its velocity accelerated from 0m/s to 20 m/s
c) 20 m/s
Explanation:
a) <em>Formula of displacement= velocity x time</em>
time=40 s
velocity =0 m/s
∴ displacement= 0 x 40 = 0 m
Magnitude of displacement is 0 m
b) The increase in velocity shows that there has been acceleration.
c) The average velocity of the car is = {initial velocity + final velocity}
=
=20
Therefore, the magnitude of the average velocity of the car is 20 m/s
