acceleration = (change in velocity) / (change in time)

acceleration = ( 26.3 m/s ) / ( 0.59 s )

acceleration = 44.57627119 m/s2 [ANSWER]

The average acceleration can be calculated using the equation of motion: average acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time. Plugging in the values, we get: average acceleration = (26.3 m/s - 0 m/s) / 0.59 s ≈ 44.6 m/s^2.

An 899 kg 1987 lb dragster starting from rest attains a speed of 26.7 ms 59.8 mph in 0.59 s What is the magnitude of the average net force on the dragster during this time?

Apart from the fact that 26.7 ms-1 is 59.7 mph, NOT 59.8 mph, the acceleration is approx 45.3 ms-2.


A car starts at rest and attains a velocity of 15 meters per second in 5 seconds what is its acceleration?

The average acceleration is given by the expression a ∆v/∆t (15 m/s)/5s 3m/s2 where a is acceleration, v is velocity, and t is time. ∆ (final-initial) value.


When the firm attains minimum average variable cost how many units of labor is it using?

When a firm attains minimum average variable cost, the number of units of labor it is using depends on the average product.


Find average acceleration and instanious acceleration?

average acceleration is the average of the acceleration of a body in its entire motion where as instantaneous acceleration is the rate of change of velocity at an instant. it may be a function of time or velocity or displacement.


What is the difference between average acceleration and instantaneous acceleration?

Average acceleration is the average of the accelerations acquired in the whole journey by a body while instantaneous acceleration is the acceleration of the body at any particular instant of time.


Derive the equation for instantaneous average acceleration vector?

You have a contradiction in your question. Instantaneous acceleration is the acceleration at a certain moment in time. Average acceleration is the average over a time interval.


What is the average acceleration of car if it travels in a straight line in one minute and it attains a velocity of 40 meters second second and it finally?

There is not enough information to answer the question. The initial velocity of the car is not given. Also, the "it finally" at the end of the question does not make sense.


A dragster started from rest and covered the flying 400m in 3.8s. It reached a final speed of 210m per s.Calculate the average acceleration?

Initial speed = zeroFinal speed = 210 m/sTime = 3.8 secondsAverage acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)= 210/3.8= 55.26 m/s2 (rounded)Note: The driver was pressed back into his seat pretty good by this acceleration of 5.64 G's !


Is average acceleration equal to instantaneous acceleration for a uniformly accelerated car?

Average acceleration will be equal to instantaneous acceleration when an object has an uniform acceleration throughout its motion. Example : A car accelerating at 1m/s2 uniformly in a straight line.
