The distance a car travels when it starts from rest and accelerates to a certain speed depends on the acceleration of the car and the time it takes to reach that speed. The formula to calculate this distance is d 0.5 a t2, where d is the distance, a is the acceleration, and t is the time taken to reach the speed.

What speed rocket starts?

A rocket's speed at launch is typically zero, as it starts from a stationary position on the ground. The rocket gradually accelerates as it is propelled by its engines, reaching higher speeds as it ascends into space.


Can speed travel in what density?

It doesn't work that way. For a start, speed doesn't travel. Rather, an object travels at a certain speed.


What is the final speed of a skater who accelerates at a rate of 2.0 ma?

If the skater's initial speed is 0 m/s and the skater accelerates at a rate of 2.0 m/s^2 for a certain time, the final speed can be calculated using the formula: final speed = initial speed + (acceleration * time). If a specific time is given, we can plug in the values to calculate the final speed.


Where does a photon get its speed from?

Nowhere. A photon must travel at the speed of light so it starts with that speed when it is created. This is the origin of the theory of special relativity.


When an object accelerates it is only changing speed but not direction?

No.When an object accelerates its velocity is changing.As velocity is defined as speed with direction, its velocity changes ifeither the speed or the direction of travel changes.As its velocity is changing it is technically accelerating (or possibly 'decelerating'if you are an American)


Can the distance traveled still be divided by the time taken to travel the distance if the speed accelerates to travel the distance?

The formula, distance = speed x time, or speed = distance / time, assumes constant speed. If the speed changes, then the formula speed = distance / time will give you the average speed over the time period. To get the instantaneous speed in this case, you must divide distance / time for a very short time interval.


What is speed divergence?

are high, air accelerates and stretches out.


Does the body falling to the earth travel at the same speed from the very beginning of its travel?

No, the speed of an object falling to the Earth increases due to the acceleration of gravity. At the beginning, the object has zero velocity and then accelerates until it reaches its terminal velocity, which is when the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity.


What object accelerates and changes speed?

An object accelerates when there is a net force acting on it, causing it to change speed. The acceleration can be in the form of speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction.


Do you fall faster when higher?

no gravity pulls you at a steady speed. however air presure and movement WILL affect your speed of travel.


A ball is dropped from a certain height. What is its initial speed?

When a ball is dropped from a certain height, its initial speed is 0 m/s as it starts from rest. The ball gains speed as it falls due to gravity pulling it downwards.
