Answer:

Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour. For air and marine travel the knot is commonly used.

Answer:

average acceleration is 1.365 × $10^{4}$ m/s²

Explanation:

given data

initila speed u = -32.2 m/s

final speed v = 21.6 m/s

time taken t = 0.00394 s

solution

we get here average acceleration that will be express as

v = u + at ..........................1

put here value and we get

21.6 = -32.2 + a × 0.00394

solve it we get

a = 1.365 × $10^{4}$ m/s²

so average acceleration is 1.365 × $10^{4}$ m/s²

You repeated a measurement 6 times and recorded the time using a stop watch: 5.8s, 4.6s, 4.8s, 5.1s, 4.3s, 4.6s. What average va

Answer and Explanation

Arranging the measured values in increasing order;

4.3s, 4.6s, 4.6s, 4.8s, 5.1s, 5.8s

The two outliers are obviously 4.3s and 5.8s; An outlier is a value in a statistical sample which does not fit a pattern that describes most other data point. Outliers make the average value complicated. So, it is usually better for data to be precise with data points spreading out around a small area.

So, the mean is the average of the four remaining data points after removing the outliers.

Mean = (4.6 + 4.6 + 4.8 + 5.1)/4

Mean = 4.775s

So, the value recorded should be 4.775s, 4.78s or 4.8s depending on the number of decimal places allowed.
