Suppose a can after an initial kick moves up along a smooth hill of ice. Why will it have the same acceleration both up the hill and down the hill?

It doesn't. Going up it has the acceleration from the kick minus acceleration due to gravity. Going down it just has acceleration due to gravity. I suppose it could be the same if the former equaled 9.8 m/s

How do you find initial acceleration.?
The initial acceleration of an object can be found by calculating the change in velocity over time. This can be done by dividing the final velocity by the time taken to reach that velocity. The formula for initial acceleration is: initial acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.
A cart of mass 10kg pulled along a smooth platform by a force of 60N. What is the acceleration of the cart?
F=mass * acceleration 60kg m/s^2=10kg * acceleration 6m/s^2 = acceleration
Suppose that an object is traveling along a straight line Suppose that its velocity function is given by vt equals 4t2 -8t where t is in seconds Find the objects average acceleration along the time?
The object's instantaneous acceleration is (8t - 8) at any time.We can't calculate the average acceleration, because you haven't defined a periodof time over which to average it. We need the start and finish times in order tofind an average.
How do you calculate velocity final with distance and acceleration?
aSsuming constant acceleration, and movement along a line, use the formula: vf2 = vi2 + (1/2)at2 (final speed squared equals initial speed squared plus one-half times acceleration times time squared).
How do you find acceleration from speed?
If speed does not change, then acceleration is 0 To find acceleration, you must also know the time Speed = metres per second. Acceleration = meters per second, per second Therefore you can use the equation m/s2 to find the acceleration. change in speed/ change in time.
Explain what is on the y-axis and x-axis in order to get acceleration?
In case of uniform acceleration,the graph will be a straight line with a +ve slope ,if we are taking velocity along Y-axis and time along X-axis.hence it's slope will give u acceleration.
What do you call a negative acceleration?
Deceleration- the opposite of acceleration.

Objects that move along a circular path are they accelerated toward the outer edge of the circle?
Actually, objects moving around a circular path have two accelerations i.e. radial acceleration and tangential acceleration. Radial acceleration is towards the radius whereas tangential acceleration is the acceleration along the direction of the tangent to the path of the motion. So, I would say yes, they are accelerated towards the outer edge of the circle.
