Question

A fox is traveling at a velocity of 2.7 m/s. 3.5 seconds later it is traveling at a velocity of
4.8 m/s. What is the acceleration of the fox?
A. 0.6 m/s2
B. 0.75m/s2
C. 1.75m/s2
D. 0.9m/s2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Acceleration = change in velocity/ time

a = v-u/ t

a = 4.8 - 2.7 / 3.5

a = 2.1/ 3.5

a = 0.6 m/ s^2

Answer 2

Explanation:

acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity / time

now here v1 is the initial velocity = 2.7m/s and v2 is the final velocity = 4.8m/s and time t = 3.5s.

a = v2-v1/t

= 4.8-2.7/3.5

= 0.6m/s^2

Remember velocity change and position change is directly proportional to acceleration.

hope u understood it
