A runner increases his velocity from 0 m/s to 20 m/s in 2.0s. What was his average acceleration?

Respuesta :

change in velocity = 20 - 0 = 20

change in time = 2 seconds

Divide the change in velocity over the change in time: 20/2 = 10

The average acceleration is 10 m/s^2

I.e, each second, the speed increases by 10 m/s

Parrain

Runner's average acceleration was 10 m / s²

The average acceleration refers to how fast the runner is going in relation to time.

It is calculated by the formula:

= Change in speed / Time

Change in distance here is:

= 20 m/s - 0 m/s

= 20 m/s

The acceleration is therefore:

= 20 / 2

= 10 m/s²

In conclusion, the runner was accelerating at a rate of 10 m/s².
