A truck brakes from 15 m/s to 2 m/s in 15 seconds. What is its acceleration?

1 answer:

3 0

If we take v=u+at and our given values are:

v=final velocity 20m/s

u=initial velocity 15m/s

a=acceleration

t=time 5sec

we plug those into our equation:

20m/s=15m/s+a(5s)

now we just rearrange to solve for acceleration.

(5m/s)/(5s)=a

a=1m/s^2

hope this helps!

Answer:

4 km/hr

Explanation:

The computation of the actual velocity is shown below:

Because the path of its paddles is opposed to the current direction, the real velocity can be determined by deducting the current velocity to its velocity while paddling

So, the actual velocity is

= Upstream - downstream

= 19 km/hr - 15 km/hr

= 4 km/hr

As we can see it is in positive, so it is an upstream direction
