To solve this, we take the change in speed and divide it by the change in time. 10 km/hr divided by 5/60 hr = 0.833 km/hr2

What is the acceleration of a car traveling 1.2 meters long in 2 seconds?

1.2 divided by 2 seconds equals .6m/s... i think. acceleration without speeding is when you're going in circles, but you feel like you're going faster.


A car slows to a stop in 5 seconds if it was going 80 kilometers an hour what was its acceleration?

You can't figure "acceleration" from this information. Maybe you meant "Deceleration"? Ask again.


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 acceleration of a car that goes from 40 kmhr to 80 kmhr in 2 seconds?

First, convert the speeds to SI units, that is, to meters/second. Then, simply subtract the difference in speed by the 2 seconds. The result will be in meters/sec2.


A car traveling at 25 meters a second speeds up to 40 meters a second over a period of 15 seconds what is the average acceleration of the car?

Average acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time interval)A = (40 - 25) / 15 = 15/15 = 1 meter/sec2


What has more acceleration a car going from 60 to 65 in 2 seconds or a bike going from rest to 5?

if the bike goes from 0-5 in the same amount of time (2 seconds) then they are accelerating at the same rate.


If a car goes in 6.8 seconds how do you figure out the acceleration?

To calculate acceleration, you need to know the initial velocity of the car and its final velocity after 6.8 seconds. The acceleration can be found using the formula: acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.


What is the average speed of a car that speeds up from 60 miles per hour to 70 miles per hour in 8 seconds?

The answer depends on whether the rate of acceleration is uniform. There is no indication in the question that it is.


What is the acceleration of a car going a constant speed of 100?

If the car is going at a constant speed of 100 km/h, then its acceleration is zero. Acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity, and since the car's speed is not increasing or decreasing, there is no acceleration.


What is the acceleration of a car traveling from 0 to 60 miles in 4 seconds?

There is no acceleration if the car is travelling at a steady 54,000 miles per hour.


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


What is the formula car 1 traveling 55mph is passed by car 2 traveling at 96mph how fast does car one have to go to catch car 2 in 88 seconds I need the formula in easy form please. thanks?

If the first car speeds up t seconds after being overtaken (t ≥ 0), and the acceleration is instantaneous, then the first car needs to travel at 96 + 41*t/(88 - t) mph Of course, acceleration will not be instantaneous, but then the formula WILL become a lot more complicated.
