HELP PLZ ASAP: Displacement versus Time
@imqwerty @robtobey
@Nerdsarecool @marieblossom16 @LegendarySadist @imqwerty
displacement is a length quantity and is measured in meters in SI unit system. The unit of displacement given in graph is meter/seconds which is thus wrong.
yeah :)
thanks!
@imqwerty what about this one really quick i am stuck: An object starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 3.0 m/s/s for 6.0 seconds. The velocity at the end of the 6.0 seconds is 0.50 m/s 1.0 m/s 2.0 m/s 18 m/s
use this formula- \(\large v=u+at\) here \(v\)-->final velocity \(u\) -->initial velocity \(a\)-->acceleration \(t\)--->time period
i got 2.0
what values of \(u\), \(a\) and \(t\) did you put in the equation?
U= 3, a=6 and t= 6
the object starts from rest it means that it was standing still initially so the initial velocity \(u\) will be 0 it is given that the acceleration \(a\) is \(3m/s^2\) and that time \(t\) is \(6secs\) so now you have ->\(u\)=0 \(a\)=3 \(t\)=6 try to find \(v\) now
i got 9 but then I am not sure what'v' is again.... to divide by
\(v\) is the final velocity the velocity at the end of 6 seconds
\(v=u+at\) just substitute the values of \(u\) , \(a\) and \(t\) in this to get \(v\) do you know what those values are?
why did you put that 6 on the left hand side? \(\color{red}6=0+3(6)\) you put that 6 in place of \(v\) but well..we don't know what is \(v\) so we just put \(v\) in its place and solve for it using the equation only this 6 on the left is wrong rest all is alright
ok.. so what would be in place of "v" in the equation?
just put it as \(v\) we don't know any numerical value of v so we just put it as \(v\) so our equation becomes this- \(v=0+3(6)\) agree?
yes
