Question

if the velocity of a body changes from 13 m/s to 30 m/s while undergoing constant acceleration what's the average velocity of the body?

Answer 1

The answer is 21.5 m/s.

Answer 2

Average velocity of the body is 21.5 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The velocity of a body changes from 13 m/s to 30 m/s while undergoing constant acceleration.

The initial velocity of the body, u = 13 m/s

The final velocity of the body, v = 30 m/s

It is moving under constant acceleration. The sum of initial velocity and final velocity divided by 2 is called the average velocity of the body. It is given by :

`v_(avg)=(u+v)/(2)`

`v_(avg)=(13\ m/s+30\ m/s)/(2)`

`v_(avg)=21.5\ m/s`

Hence, the average velocity of the body is 21.5 m/s
