Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change) = (0 - 36)/3 = -12 m/s2
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2, so the passengers are pulled forward
against their seat belts with a 'force' of 1.22 Gs during the screech.
The acceleration of the car can be calculated using the formula: acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time. Substituting the values, we get acceleration = (0 m/s - 36 m/s) / 3 s = -36 m/s^2. Therefore, the acceleration of the car while stopping is -36 m/s^2.
If it takes 15 seconds for an echo to be heard, the distance between you and the reflecting surface (such as a wall, cliff, or building) is approximately 2,250 meters (15 seconds multiplied by the speed of sound at sea level, which is about 343 meters per second).
The speed of sound in air at 20C is approximately 343 meters per second. To find the time it takes for sound to travel 33.6 meters, you divide the distance by the speed: 33.6 meters / 343 m/s ≈ 0.098 seconds.
From the Sun, it takes about 500 seconds. That's 8 minutes and 20 seconds.
The time it takes for the sound to travel to the cliff and back as an echo is 4 seconds. Since the sound wave travels twice the distance to the cliff and back, the total distance traveled is 2 × 680 = 1360 meters. Using the formula speed = distance/time, we can calculate the speed of sound. The period of the sound wave is the time it takes for one complete cycle, which in this case is the time it takes for the sound to travel to the cliff and back, which we found to be 4 seconds.
A heartbeat typically takes around eight seconds to occur. This is the average time it takes for the heart to complete one full cycle of contraction and relaxation.
velocity = acceleration x time 27 = acceleration x 10 acceleration = 2.7 m/sec/sec
the magnitude of the skydivers acceleration is zero as he is decelerating by opening his parachute!
Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change) = (25) / (10) = 2.5 meters per second2
A stone that falls from a ledge and takes 8 second to hit the ground travels a distance of 313.6 meters. You can find this answer by substituting 8 seconds for time in the physics formula d = 1/2 x acceleration x (t squared), where d = distance, acceleration is given as a =9.8 meters/second squared, and t squared is time in seconds.
Magnitude of acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change) = 2/5 Acceleration = 0.4 meters per second2 north

To find the acceleration, we need to first convert the velocity from kilometers per hour to meters per second. 36 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 10 meters per second. Next, we can use the formula for acceleration: acceleration (a) = change in velocity (Δv) / time taken (Δt). For the acceleration during the start, the change in velocity is 10 m/s (initial velocity was 0) and the time taken is 10 seconds. Thus, the acceleration is 1 m/s^2. For the deceleration (when stopping), the change in velocity is -10 m/s (final velocity was 0) and the time taken is 20 seconds. Thus, the acceleration is -0.5 m/s^2. Negative sign indicates deceleration.
The depth of the mine can be calculated using the formula: distance = 1/2 * acceleration due to gravity * time squared. Given the time is 6 seconds and the acceleration due to gravity is about 9.8 m/s^2, the depth of the mine would be approximately 176.4 meters.
Depends on how fast your walking.
Divide the difference in speed by the time it takes. This will give you the average acceleration for that time period.
If it takes 15 seconds for an echo to be heard, the distance between you and the reflecting surface (such as a wall, cliff, or building) is approximately 2,250 meters (15 seconds multiplied by the speed of sound at sea level, which is about 343 meters per second).
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity and is measured in ms2 (meters per second squared). It can also be described as the time it takes for the speed to change.
