Question

The velocity of a body is increases from 10 m/s ti 15 m/s in 5seconds calculate its acceleration​

Answer 1

Answer:

acceleration = v-u/ t

= 15-10/5

= 5/5

= 1 m/s2

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1 \ m/s^2}}$

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over the change in time. Therefore, the formula for calculating acceleration is:

$a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

Since the body's velocity increased from 10 meters per second to 15 meters per second 15 m/s is the final velocity and 10 m/s is the initial velocity. The time is 5 seconds.

• $v_f$= 15 m/s

• $v_i$= 10 m/s

• t= 5 s

$a= \frac{ 15 \ m/s - 10 \ m/s}{5 \ s}$

Solve the numerator.

• 15 m/s - 10 m/s = 5 m/s

$a= \frac{ 5 \ m/s }{5 \ s}$

Divide.

$a= 1 \ m/s/s$

$a= 1 m/s^2$

The acceleration is 1 meter per second squared.
