Find the vehicle's acceleration when its final velocity is measured as 45 m/s, the initial initial velocity was 0.0 m/s and the time elapsed was 8.5 seconds.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Acceleration (a) [tex]=5.29\ m\./s^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

final velocity (v) [tex]=45\ m/s[/tex]

Initial velocity (u) [tex]=0\ m/s[/tex]

Time (t) [tex]=8.5\ seconds[/tex]

Then

[tex]v=u+at\ ...................................... (1)[/tex]

Where [tex]a[/tex] is acceleration.

put the value in equation [tex](1)[/tex]

[tex]45=0+a\times8.5\\a\times8.5=45[/tex]

dividing [tex]8.5[/tex] both sides

[tex]\frac{a\times8.5}{8.5}=\frac{45}{8.5}\\\\a=\frac{45}{8.5}\\\\a=\frac{450}{85}\\\\a=5.29\ m/s^2[/tex]
