PLEASE HELP!!!!


A high-performance sports car can go from 0 to 100 mph (44.7 m/s) in 8.8 s (Assume the car travels in the the positive direction. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

A.) what is the car’s average acceleration?
___ m/s2

B.) The same car Can come to a complete stop from 34 m/s in 5.5 s what is its average acceleration?
_____m/s2

Respuesta :

(a) The car’s average acceleration for the first motion is 5.08 m/s².

(b) The car’s average acceleration when it stops is -6.18 m/s².

What is average acceleration?

The average acceleration refers to the rate at which the velocity changes.

The car’s average acceleration is calculated as follows;

a = v/t

a = (44.7 m/s ) / (8.8 s)

a = 5.08 m/s²

Average acceleration of the car when it comes to stop

a = v - u /t

where;

  • v is the final velocity
  • u is initial velocity

when the car stops, v = 0

a = (0 - 34 m/s) / 5.5 s

a = -6.18 m/s²

Thus, the car’s average acceleration for the first motion is 5.08 m/s².

The car’s average acceleration when it stops is -6.18 m/s².
