There are different formulae for calculating these variables which depend on what information is available.
You need velocity at two points in time, and the acceleration must be constant. If the initial velocity is u ms-1 and the final velocity is v ms-1, and the time interval is t then t = (v - u)/a s.
Deceleration (or negative acceleration).
v1 = initial velocity v2 = final velocity
Initial velocity is the original starting velocity. I love math! It makes you smart like a math smart person.
This is the standard expression for the ACCELERATION due to gravity. Acceleration is the change in speed per second. If there is no friction or air resistance then a body falling from rest will reach a speed of 32.2 fps after 1 second, after 2 secs it will be travelling at 64.4. fps, at 96.6 fps after 3 secs ....and so on. In Mechanics there is an expression for motion involving constant acceleration :- v = u + ft, where v = velocity after a period of time, u = initial velocity, f = acceleration and t = time. In the question, after 3 seconds this formula would produce :- v = 0 + 32.2 x 3 = 96.6 fps.
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.
If s = displacement, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, t = time. Then s = ut + 1/2at2 Be careful to keep units consistent
Yes.
The initial acceleration of an object can be found by calculating the change in velocity over time. This can be done by dividing the final velocity by the time taken to reach that velocity. The formula for initial acceleration is: initial acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.
Final velocity = (Initial velocity) + (time)(acceleration)
If the velocity is constant, thenDisplacement = (initial velocity) multiplied by (time)
Deceleration is the rate of decrease of velocity with respect to time. It is the negative of acceleration. The formula for deceleration is the same as that of acceleration, only that the acceleration is represented as negative. The formula is: - (deceleration) = (final velocity) - (initial velocity) time Therefore, (deceleration) = (initial velocity) - (final velocity) time
Use the formula Acceleration = (final velosity - initial velocity)/ time.
You subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide by the time interval.
final velocity-initial velocity --------------------------------- time
Acceleration = Final velocity - Initial velocity / time
Where a = (v-u)/t a is acceleration, v is final velocity u is initial velocity t is time so, u=v-at
