Question

Calculate the acceleration using the formula acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.

A parked car accelerates to 60 km/hour in 6 seconds. What is the car's acceleration?

Quick pls answer I don’t want to fail

10 km/hr/hr

10 km/hr/s

10 km/hr

360 km/hr/s

Answer 1

10 km/hr/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by

`a=(v-u)/(t)`

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

For the car in this problem:

u = 0

`v=60 km/h`

t = 6 s

Substituting in the equation,

`a=(60 km/h-0)/(6s)=10 km/h/s`
