A car at rest ends accelerates for 12 seconds. After this time the car is going 36 m/s. What was its acceleration?
Zigmanuir [339]

Acceleration is defined as velocity per unit time.

Acceleration=\frac{Velocity}{time}

a=\frac{dv}{dt}

Here, a=acceleartion,

v=velocity=36 m/s

t=time=12 s

a=\frac{dv}{dt}

a=\frac{36}{12}

a=3 ms⁻²

A car at rest ends accelerates for 12 seconds. After this time the car is going 36 m/s. So acceleration that is a=3 ms⁻².
