can someone help me with this acceleration problem please? Estimate the blood's acceleration during speeding up phase of the motion.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

will the equation be (vf-vi)/(tf-ti)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(0.8-0.0)/(0.15-0.0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes,\[a= \Delta V / \Delta t\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 5.3m/s^2 as the answer but it says it's wrong :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i meant 0.8-0.0/(1.05-0.0) = 0.761 m/s^2 but it says its wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its 0.105 not 1.05

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 0.8-0.0/(0.105-0.0) = 7.62 m/s^2 but it's still wrong ;/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ha, sorry it should be .150! XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i got 5.3 m/s^2 using 0.15 but it says its wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok lets see what your doing wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you check the graph i uploaded

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I see the problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it the horizontal line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You have the time wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

from 0 to 0.1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, you should be writing 0.150 - 0.1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah crap

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That makes sense right? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its because the thing starts moving at 0.1 right instead of 0 right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, you see its speeding up from 0.1 to 0.150

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i got another question pls

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 0.8-0 }{ 0.150-0.1 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's how it should be

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so if it asks me about slowing down

OpenStudy (anonymous):

time should be from 0.150 to 0.3 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 0-0.8 }{ 0.3-0.150 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be 0.0-0.8/(0.3-0.150)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cool thanks. its kind of hard to learn physics in another language ;D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Physics is hard in any language :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha thanks mate!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No worries, take care!
