What else can I help you with?
Is acceleration equal to the initial velocity minus the final velocity and then divided by time?
No, acceleration is calculated as the change in velocity divided by time. It is the rate at which the velocity of an object changes. Mathematically, acceleration is represented as (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.
What would be true of the values for initial velocity and final velocity if the acceleration were zero?
A change in velocity can be effected only by acceleration. Therefore, if the acceleration is zero, there is no change, so final velocity equals initial velocity.
What is the acceleration for linear motion?
Average Acceleration can be verbally defined as the change in velocity in a certain change in time... More simply put: Average Acceleration = (Final Velocity - Initial Velocity) / (Final Time - Initial Time)
What is the formula for calculating final velocity when you know the initial speed and the acceleration?
the formula for finding acceleration is final velocity, minus initial velocity, all over time. So if you have the acceleration and initial speed, which is equal to the initial velocity, you must also have time in order to find the final velocity. Once you have the time, you multiply it by the acceleration. That product gives you the difference of the final velocity and initial velocity, so then you just add the initial velocity to the product to find the final velocity.
What equals acceleration x time?
It's equal to the change in velocity (final velocity - initial velocity).
Does velocity equal acceleration x time?
Yes, sort of. At least, that's the units used. The actual definition of acceleration is: a = dv/dt In other words, the rate at which velocity changes. In the case of constant acceleration, that would be equal to a change in velocity, divided by the time interval during which this change takes place. In the case of non-constant acceleration, the acceleration, or rate of change of velocity, can of course change from one moment to another.
This is equal to the initial velocity plus acceleration multiplied by time?
That's the velocity at any time.
What is the formula of getting the velocity?
Velocity is equal to distance traveled divided by the time it took to travel. v = d / t Velocity also equals the initial velocity plus the acceleration times time. v = v1 + a(t)
Explain Why a change in velocity effects acceleration?
It doesn't "affect" it. Acceleration is DEFINED as (delta v) / (delta t), or change in velocity divided by the time elapsed; so whenever you have a delta-v, you'll have an acceleration (the amount of which also depends on the time elapsed).
What does initial velocity squared plus 2 times acceleration times distance equal?
This equation represents the final velocity squared when an object is accelerating from an initial velocity over a certain distance. It is derived from the kinematic equation (v^2 = u^2 + 2as), where (v) is the final velocity, (u) is the initial velocity, (a) is the acceleration, and (s) is the distance traveled.
How do you calculate initial speed without time given?
Without time given, it is not possible to calculate the initial speed. The initial speed can be determined only if you have the time taken to reach a certain point from rest, along with the distance traveled or acceleration information. The formula to calculate initial speed is v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is acceleration, and t is time.
How can you rewrite the formula for acceleration?
The formula for acceleration can be rewritten as a = Δv / Δt, where acceleration (a) is equal to the change in velocity (Δv) divided by the change in time (Δt).
