Question

A bus decreases its speed from 80km h-
1to 60km in 5s find the acceleration t of the bus​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: The acceleration of the bus is -1.12m/s2

Let us understand the relationship between acceleration, speed and time.

Explanation:

Acceleration a = (V - U) / t

Given: Initial velocity (U) = 80 km/hr = 80 × 5/18 = 400/18 = 22.2 m/sec

Final velocity (V) = 60 km/hr = 60 × 5/18 = 300/18 = 16.6 m/sec

Acceleration a = (V - U) / t

= (16.6 - 22.2)/5

= -5.6/5

= -1.12 m/s2
