1 m/s² (1 metre per second per second) is a measure of acceleration, NOT speed. Assuming you mean a swim rate of 1.0 m/s (1 metre per second), then: time = distance ÷ speed = 900 m ÷ 1 m/s = 900 s 60 s = 1 min → 900 s = 900 ÷ 60 min = 15 minutes ---------------------------------- Assuming you really do mean that you swim with a constant acceleration of 1 m/s² and you start at 0 m/s, then: s = ut + ½at² s = 900 m u = 0 a = 1 m/s² t = unknown → 900 m = 0 m/s × t + ½ × 1 m/s² × t² → 900 m = ½t² → t² = 1800 s² → t ≈ 42.43 s If you start at 0 m/s and accelerate at 1 m/s², then it will take approx 42.43 seconds to cover 900 m.
Acceleration = (v - u)/t Replace each variable in the equation with their units Acceleration = (m/s - m/s) / s Same common denominator (m - m/s)/s Apply divison of fractions (m-m)/s*s (m/s^2) Note: I know m - m = 0 but they are just units expressing metres!
Vf = V0 + at --> 0 = (8.5 m/s) - (5.3 m/s²)t -> t = (8.5 m/s)/(5.3 m/s²) = 1.60377 s
total distance = 2m + 80m = 82 m total time = 2s + 40s = 42s → average speed = total distance / total time = 82m / 42s = 1 20/21 m/s ≈ 1.95 m/s
