How long would it take you to swim across a lake that is 900 meters across if you swim at 1.0 ms2?
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.
What is constant accelaration?
M/s -1 - For example gravity has a constant acceleration of 9 M/s -1
What does the phrase 1 meter per second mean?
It's a measure of acceleration. It means something is gaining 1 m/s of speed every second it accelerates.
What is the value of 9.8M per s' 2?
The acceleration due to gravity on the earth, known as g, is 9.8m/s2 or 9.8m/s/s, which means that a falling object falls with an increasing velocity of 9.8m/s every second, or 9.8m/s/s, which means 9.8 meters/second/second. m/s/s can be written as m/s2, because m/s/s means m/s ÷ s/1 = m/s x 1/s = m/s2.
Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 200 kg They collide Spaceship 1's final speed is 2 m/s, and Spaceship 2's final speed is 1 m/s in the same direction What is their combined momentum?
600kg-m/s apex miles
