You can't convert between seconds, and meters/second. If you have a problem that involves speeds, use the formula: distance = speed x time.

If a nerve signal travels to and from the brain at a speed of 30 meters per second how long would it take the signal to travel 3 meters?
It would take the signal 0.1 seconds to travel 3 metres, given the parameters that you have given.
If a trucks brakes are applied for 2 seconds giving it acceleration of -3.1 ms2 what will the trucks new speed be in ms?
No starting velocity was given, so I can't give a correct answer, but I can answer part of the question. Given an acceleration and a time through which an object accelerates, you can determine the change in velocity. Acceleration is just the change of velocity over a period of time. Since we have an acceleration of -3.1 meters per second squared, acting for two seconds, we have a change in velocity of -6.2 meters per second. Take the original velocity and subtract 6.2 meters per second to get the answer.
What does the phrase per second per second mean?
per second per second is taken with the context of how an object is changing its acceleration. An object accelerates by speeding up or slowing down. If an object speeds up, it could speed up at a rate of 5 meters per hour, let's say, every second. So after one second, its speed is 5 mph; after two seconds, its speed is 10 mph and so forth. If an object's speed is increasing at 5 meters a second, then its speed is 5 meters per second the first second; 10 meters per second the second second and so forth. We would say the object's acceleration is 10 meters per second / per second.AnswerIt has to do with speed,the time an object falls from a given height is calculated in seconds per second( it fell in less than a second)
If a car starts from rest and after 6 seconds it is moving at 42 ms what is the car's average acceleration?
If a car is moving 42 meters per second after 6 sectons, the average acceletion is 7 meters per second per second. It is an average, given two points of data, and it is not the instantaneous acceleration at any point in time.
What is the acceleration for meters per second?
This is imposible to calculate. In order to find acceleration, knowlege of at least 3 of these variables must be given: initial speed, final speed, distance, and time.
At what time is the position of the ball equal to 12.5 meters?
Because if the given is meter the answer is second and when the given is seconds the answer is meters
How do you calculate the speed of AA free falling object?
That depends what data you are given. Close to the Earth's surface, such an object will accelerate at 9.8 meters/second2, so if it starts from rest, after "n" seconds, it will have a speed of "9.8n" meters/second.
How far do you travel in 2 second at 100km?
100 km per what time? speed is not given. Assume speed = 100 km/hour Then in 2 seconds you travel: 100 km/h = 100000/3600 m/second = 1000/36 meter/second in 2 seconds you travel 2000/36 meters = 500/9 meters = 55.6 meters
If you are given the mass of an object in pounds the time in seconds and the distance in feet what must you do before you can calculate the momentum in SI units?
You must convert the mass from pounds to kilograms, time from seconds to seconds, and distance from feet to meters. Only then can you use the formula for momentum (momentum = mass * velocity) to calculate momentum in SI units (kg*m/s).
If a nerve signal travels to and from the brain at a speed of 30 meters per second how long would it take the signal to travel 3 meters?
It would take the signal 0.1 seconds to travel 3 metres, given the parameters that you have given.
How do you convert seconds to meters per second?
This question doesn't make a lot of sense. Maybe something is missing? To convert seconds to metres per second you would need to divide the metres given by the number of seconds used. If all you have is seconds, and no distance, then you are stuck. Metres per second is a measure of speed and seconds is a measure of time. Speed=distance/time. So divide your metres by your seconds to get metres per second.
Given the information in the velocity vs. time graph, what is the displacement of the object after 1 second mAfter 3 seconds mAfter 5 seconds m?
To find the displacement of the object after 1 second, you need to calculate the area under the velocity vs. time graph up to 1 second. After 3 seconds, calculate the area up to 3 seconds, and the same for 5 seconds. The area under the graph represents the displacement.
Starting from rest a ball rolls down a long incline with a constant acceleration After 2 seconds it traveled 2 meters In the next second it will have travled?
In the first 2 seconds, the velocity of the ball would be given by v = at, where a is the acceleration. Given it traveled 2 meters in 2 seconds, we can use the equation s = (1/2)at^2 to find the acceleration which is 1 m/s^2. So, after 3 seconds, the ball will travel an additional 3 * 1 = 3 meters.
Measure of the average speed?
Average speed = Distance divided by time taken and the unit is meters per second (written m/s), so remember to convert distance to meters and time to seconds if it not already given to you as these.
How do you calculate milliamperage mA when given milliampere seconds and exposure time?
thank you
Find the acceleration of a car that goes from A meters per second to B meters per second in 8 seconds?
The acceleration of the car can be calculated using the formula: acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time. Given the initial velocity (A), final velocity (B), and time (8 seconds), you can substitute the values into the formula to find the acceleration.
