Question

A particle has:

A.) an average acceleration of 6 m/s2 if it goes from 2 m/s to 6 m/s in 2 seconds.

B.) an average acceleration of 4 m/s2 if it goes from 2 m/s to 6 m/s in 2 seconds.

C.)an average acceleration of 12 m/s2 if it goes from 2 m/s to 6 m/s in 2 seconds.

D.)an average acceleration of 3 m/s2 if it goes from 2 m/s to 6 m/s in 2 seconds.

E.) an average acceleration of 2 m/s2 if it goes from 2 m/s to 6 m/s in 2 seconds.

Answer 1

@mikethorp Do you know the formula relating acceleration and velocity?

Answer 2

It's
\[a= \frac{v-u}{t}\]
a= acceleration in m/s^2
v= final velocity in m/s
u=initial velocity in m/s
t= time in seconds

Answer 3

Can you use this to find the correct option?
