the space shuttle releases a space telescope into orbit around the earth . the telescope goes from being stationary to traveling to a speed of 1700 m/s in 25 seconds whats the acceleration of the satellite?

Answer:

a = 68 m/s²

Explanation:

Definition:

The acceleration is rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time.

Formula:

a = Vf - Vi/t

a = acceleration

Vf = final velocity

Vi = initial velocity

t = time

Units:

The unit of acceleration is m.s⁻².

Given data:

a = Vf - Vi/t

a  = 1700 m/s - 0 m/s / 25 sec

a =   1700 m/s /  25 sec

a = 68 m/s²

The acceleration of the satellite is 68 m/s².

What is Acceleration?

The acceleration is rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time. The unit of acceleration is m.s⁻².The formula that is used to calculate acceleration is:

[tex]a = \frac{V_f-V_i}{t}[/tex]

where,

a = acceleration

Vf = final velocity

Vi = initial velocity

t = time

On substituting the given values in the above formula:

[tex]a = \frac{V_f-V_i}{t}\\\\a=\frac{1700m/s-0m/s}{25s}\\\\ a=\frac{1700m/s}{25s}\\\\ a=68m/s^2[/tex]

Thus, the value for acceleration of satellite is 68m/s².
