Average velocity is total distance by total time .
let us calculate velocity at the end of 6 seconds.
v=vo+at
v= 0+1.7*6
v=10.2 m/sec
distance travelled by object in six seconds
x= vot+1/2at2
x=0+.5(1.7)(62)
x=30.6 m
the final velocity at the end of six seconds that is 10.2m/s will be the initial velocity when objects moves with uniform velocity with a constant velocity
x= vot+1/2at2 . . . accel is 0 since velocity is constant between 6 & 15 secs.
x=10.2*9=91.8
Again . . average velocity is total distance by total time.
Average velocity= [30.6+91.8]/15= 122.4*15 = 8.16m/s
No. Acceleration is the rate at which the speed is INCREASING. Since the speed is increasing,the distance traveled by the body in each time interval is also increasing.
Acceleration = (speed at the end of some time interval minus speed at the beginning of the interval)/(length of the time interval)
Acceleration has two parts ... its size and its direction.To find the size (magnitude):-- pick a time interval-- measure the speed at the beginning of the interval-- measure the speed at the end of the interval-- subtract the speed at the beginning from the speed at the end-- divide that difference by the length of the time interval-- the result is the magnitude of acceleration during that time interval
Yes, sort of. At least, that's the units used. The actual definition of acceleration is: a = dv/dt In other words, the rate at which velocity changes. In the case of constant acceleration, that would be equal to a change in velocity, divided by the time interval during which this change takes place. In the case of non-constant acceleration, the acceleration, or rate of change of velocity, can of course change from one moment to another.
No. Acceleration is (change of velocity) divided by (time interval in which it changed). If velocity doesn't change, then there is no acceleration.
Acceleration means speeding up or slowing down, a change in velocity. Since the velocity was constant, the acceleration was. 0

It is acceleration. The difference between final velocity and initial velocity, divided by the time is the AVERAGE acceleration. Remember, though that velocity is a vector. So if you are going round in a circle at a constant speed, your direction of motion is changing continuously and so you are always accelerating!

acceleration
"acceleration"
Answer This occurs when an object istraveling in one direction but has an acceleration in the opposite direction, which means it is decreasing in speed. For a given period of time, the speed has decreased. Acceleration is the change of velocity per second. T1 = 5 seconds V1 = 100mph T2 = 10 seconds V2= 50 mph Acceleration = (V2 - V1 ) / (T2 - T1) = (50-100)/(10-5) = -10 ft/sec/sec Positive(+) acceleration means an object will be going faster over an interval of time.
You need velocity at two points in time, and the acceleration must be constant. If the initial velocity is u ms-1 and the final velocity is v ms-1, and the time interval is t then t = (v - u)/a s.
