If a car is travelling with 36kmph after 10 sec it accerlated to 108kmph.Find his accerlation.
Answers
GIVEN-
U=0 ,V=36KM/H OR 10M/SEC ,T=10 SEC
TO FIND - ACCERALATION
V=U+AT
10=0+AX10
10A=10
A=1 M/S²

Given:-
- Initial velocity,u = 36 km/h
- Final velocity,v = 108 km/h
- Time taken,t = 10 sec
To be calculated:-
Calculate the acceleration, a .
Formula used:-
Acceleration = v - u / t
Solution:-
We should convert given velocity into proper units,
1 km = 1000 m
36 km = 36000 m
And,
1 hour = 60 × 60 seconds
= 3600 seconds
So,
Initial velocity = 36 km/h
= 36000/3600
= 10 m/s
Similarly,
1 km = 1000 m
108 km = 108000 m
And,
1 hour = 3600 seconds
So,
Final velocity = 108 km/h
= 108000/3600
= 30 m/s
Now,
Acceleration,a = v - u / t
★ Substituting the values in the above formula,we get:
Acceleration = 30 - 10 / 10
= 20 / 10
= 2 m/s²
Hence,the acceleration of a car is 2 m/s².
