Question

Susan rolls downhill on her bicycle. Moving with a speed of 6.0 meters per second, her speed increases to 12.0 meters per second in 6.0 seconds. Calculate the acceleration rate of the Susan.

Answer 1

Answer:It's 1 m/s^2

Explanation:Credit:Answer above me.

Answer 2

a = 1 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition:

The acceleration is rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time.

Formula:

a = Vf - Vi/t

a = acceleration

Vf = final velocity

Vi = initial velocity

t = time

Units:

The unit of acceleration is m.s⁻².

Given data:

Initial velocity = 6 m/s

Final velocity = 12 m/s

Time = 6 s

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

a = Vf - Vi/t

a =12 m/s - 6 m/s / 6 sec

a = 6 m/s / 6 sec

a = 1 m/s²
