4. You are walking at a leisurely pace of .75 m/s when you hear the train coming and start running to catch it. Over the next 10

Answer:

0.275 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is defined as the change in velocity over the change in time.

  • a = Δv/Δt
  • a = (v - v₀)/t

We are given the initial velocity, 0.75 m/s. The final velocity of the user in question is 3.5 m/s.

The time it takes for us to catch the train is 10 seconds. Using these variables, let's substitute into our equation.

  • a = (3.5 - 0.75)/10
  • a = 2.75/10
  • a = 0.275 m/s²

Our acceleration over that time was 0.275 m/s² in order to catch the train.

3. A runner has constant acceleration for 6.4 seconds over a 20 m distance starting from rest.
garri49 [273]

Answer:

You need to use the equations of motion which I wrote down in the image. Since the runner starts from rest, the initial velocity(v0) is 0 and initial position(x0) is also 0. The solution is in the image attached below.
