well we know that we have two speeds and a time. So,
initial speed = 80
final speed = 60
change in time = 6
Now acceleration in this case will be measured in kilometers per hour per second (i.e. every x seconds, y kilometers per hour are gained in speed)
So we simply apply the formula
Acceleration = (final speed - initial speed)/ change in time
= (80 - 60)/6
= 20/6
= 3.6666667 km/h/s
If you want to have that in meters per second square, convert the speed to meters per second (divide by 3.6 in this case). Then, divide the speed by the time.
what is the change in speed or velocity? average acceleration will be change in speed or velocity divided by time taken (4 seconds in ur case)
Divide the difference in speed by the time. You must convert the speed difference into meters/second (dividing km/h by 3.6).
Assuming that your units of velocity are in units/second Acceleration = (velocity 2 - velocity 1) / time Acceleration = (4.9 - 0) / 3 Acceleration =1.63 *With correct significant figures the answer is 2
Assuming that acceleration is constant during that time, just divide the change in speed by the time.

It is the acceleration.
It is the acceleration.
If you want to have that in meters per second square, convert the speed to meters per second (divide by 3.6 in this case). Then, divide the speed by the time.
Acceleration is directly proportional to the change in speed. If the speed increases, acceleration is positive. If the speed decreases, acceleration is negative. The magnitude of acceleration is determined by the rate at which the speed changes.

Average acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)= (80) / (20) = 4 meters per second2
what is the change in speed or velocity? average acceleration will be change in speed or velocity divided by time taken (4 seconds in ur case)
When a ball increases in speed by the same amount each second, its acceleration is constant. This type of motion is known as constant acceleration.
Divide the difference in speed by the time. You must convert the speed difference into meters/second (dividing km/h by 3.6).
It is the acceleration.
