Acceleration = change in velocity/change in time

Acceleration = 96 miles per second - 32 miles per second/8 seconds

= 8 miles per second per second

or, better expressed

8 mi/s^2

What is the acceleration of a car that goes form 0 miles per second to 25 miles per second in 3 seconds?

Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)Acceleration = (25 - 0)/(3) = 81/3 miles per second2Don't try this at home. That acceleration is about 1,368 G's. You can not survive it!


What is the average acceleration of a care that goes from rest to 60 mph in 7 seconds in feet per second?

the car goes from 0 miles in an hour to 60 miles in an hour over 7 seconds this can be changed to minuets (60 minuets in an hour) the car goes from 0 miles in a minuet to 1 mile in a minuet over 7 seconds this can be changed to seconds (60 seconds in a minuet) the car goes from 0 miles in a second to 1/60 miles in a minuet over 7 seconds which then can be changed to feet (5280 feet in a mile) the car goes from 0 feet in a second to 5280/60 feet in a second over 7 seconds this can be simplified the car goes from 0 feet in a second to 88 feet in a second over 7 seconds now lets divide everything by 7 the car goes from 0 feet in a second to 12.57 feet in a second over 1 seconds so are answer is... the car accelerate from 0 to 12.57 feet per second in 1 second


If a roller coaster goes from zero to 80 miles per hour in 1.8 seconds what is its acceleration in miles per hour per second to the nearest tenth?

It goes from 0 mph to 80 mph in 1.8 seconds Acceleration = change in speed/time taken = (80 - 0)/1.8 mph per second = 44.4 mph per sec


If your car goes from 0 to 55 miles per hour in 6 seconds what is your acceleration?

9.167 miles per second a = s2- s1/t = 55-0/6 = 9.167


What is your acceleration if your car goes from 60 miles per hour to 0 in 3 seconds?

The velocity of an object goes from 4 m per second to 12 m per second in 4 seconds what is its acceleration?

The change in velocity was 8 m / s. Divide that by 4 seconds and get 2 m / s2 -- sometimes stated as acceleration of 2 meters per second per second.


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.


What is the acceleration of a car that goes from 32 meters per second to 96 meters per second in 8 seconds?

Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)Acceleration = (96 - 32) / 8 = 64/8 = 8 meters per second2


What does per second per second mean?

Per second per second or (/s/s) refers to the rate of acceleration. If you are standing still and you increase your speed at a rate of 5 feet per second per second that means after 1 second you'll be moving at 5 feet per second, after two seconds you'll be moving at 10 feet per second, after three seconds you'll be moving at 15 feet per second, and so on. Every second that goes by, 5 more feet per second will be added to your speed. So 5ft/s/s is a rate of acceleration. An easier example to understand, instead of per second per second, is per hour per second. If you are in a car that is standing still and you increase your speed at a rate of 5 miles per hour per second that means after 1 second you'll be traveling at 5 miles per hour. After 2 seconds your speed will have reached 10 mph. After 10 seconds you'll be traveling at 50mph. Each second that goes by you add 5mph to the speed.
