What is the acceleration of a car that screeches to a stop if it takes 3 seconds to go from 36 meters per seconds to 0 meters per seconds?

Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change) = (0 - 36)/3 = -12 m/s2
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2, so the passengers are pulled forward
against their seat belts with a 'force' of 1.22 Gs during the screech.

How much time does it takes light to reach the surface of the earth?
From the Sun, it takes about 500 seconds. That's 8 minutes and 20 seconds.
How far is 304.8 meters in miles?
3040 meters = 1.88896842 miles.
What takes eight seconds to occur?
Sunlight to reach earth
Is 6 kilometers 600 meters?
No. It takes 1,000 meters to equal 1 kilometer, so 6 kilometers is the same as 6,000 meters
What is the acceleration experienced by a car that takes 10 seconds to reach 27 meters per seconds from rest?
velocity = acceleration x time 27 = acceleration x 10 acceleration = 2.7 m/sec/sec
When skydiver slows down from 54 meters to 4 meters by opening his parachute If this takes 0.75 seconds what is the magnitude of the skydiver's acceleration?
the magnitude of the skydivers acceleration is zero as he is decelerating by opening his parachute!
If a car takes 10 seconds to go from 0meters per second to 25 meters per second at constant acceleration what is the acceleration?
Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change) = (25) / (10) = 2.5 meters per second2
A stone falls from a ledge and takes 8 seconds to hit the ground?
A stone that falls from a ledge and takes 8 second to hit the ground travels a distance of 313.6 meters. You can find this answer by substituting 8 seconds for time in the physics formula d = 1/2 x acceleration x (t squared), where d = distance, acceleration is given as a =9.8 meters/second squared, and t squared is time in seconds.
A car traveling at 8 meters per second due north speeds up to 10 meters per second in the same direction If it takes the car 5 seconds to change its velocity what is the car's acceleration?
Magnitude of acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change) = 2/5 Acceleration = 0.4 meters per second2 north
What is the magnitude of a skydiver's acceleration if it takes 0.75 seconds?
zero
Scooter acquires a velocity of 36 kilometre per hour in 10 seconds after the start it takes 20 seconds to stop calculate the acceleration?
To find the acceleration, we need to first convert the velocity from kilometers per hour to meters per second. 36 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 10 meters per second. Next, we can use the formula for acceleration: acceleration (a) = change in velocity (Δv) / time taken (Δt). For the acceleration during the start, the change in velocity is 10 m/s (initial velocity was 0) and the time taken is 10 seconds. Thus, the acceleration is 1 m/s^2. For the deceleration (when stopping), the change in velocity is -10 m/s (final velocity was 0) and the time taken is 20 seconds. Thus, the acceleration is -0.5 m/s^2. Negative sign indicates deceleration.
How many seconds it takes you to walk 66 meters?
Depends on how fast your walking.
What would the acceleration be if it took 10 seconds to go from 8ms to 18ms and why?
Divide the difference in speed by the time it takes. This will give you the average acceleration for that time period.
If it takes 500 seconds for the light from the sun to reach the earth what is the distance to the sun in meters?
500 light seconds on my meter.
What kind of measurement is acceleration?
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity and is measured in ms2 (meters per second squared). It can also be described as the time it takes for the speed to change.
A motorcycle slows down from 40ms to 20ms. if this takes 4 seconds what is the motorcycles acceleration?
-5 m/s² (APEX)
