A car travelling at 36 km/h speeds up to 72 km/h in 5 seconds. What is its acceleration? (full process required)
Answers
- we need to find Acceleration.
- A car travelling at 36 km/h speeds up to 72 km/h in 5 seconds
- Initial velocity (u) = 36km/hr
- Final velocity (v) = 72km/hr
- Time taken (t) = 5 seconds
Changing velocities in m/s
- 36km/hr = 10m/s
- 72k/hr = 20m/s
❥ By using 1st equation of motion:-
★ v = u + at
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ 20 = 10 + a × 5
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ 20 - 10 = 5a
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ 10 = 5a
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ a = 10/5
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ a = 2m/s²
hence,
- ≫Acceleration of car is 2m/s²

Acceleration :- The rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time is called acceleration.
»★ Acceleration is a vector quantity.
»★ SI unit of acceleration is m/s²

Given:−
A car travelling at 36 km/h speeds up to 72 km/h in 5 seconds
\huge\bf\underline{Solution:-}
Solution:−
Initial velocity (u) = 36km/hr
Final velocity (v) = 72km/hr
Time taken (t) = 5 seconds
Changing velocities in m/s
36km/hr = 10m/s
72k/hr = 20m/s
❥ By using 1st equation of motion:-
★ v = u + at
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ 20 = 10 + a × 5
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ 20 - 10 = 5a
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ 10 = 5a
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ a = 10/5
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀➝ a = 2m/s²
hence,
≫Acceleration of car is 2m/s²
