Question

If two automobiles have the same acceleration, do they have the same
velocity? Why or why not?

Answer 1

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Acceleration = Velocity/Time

An example of where the velocity would be different is:

Acceleration =
`(10\ m/s)/(2s)=5\ m/s^2` (automobile 1)

Acceleration =
`(25 \ m/s)/(5 s)=5\ m/s^2` (automobile 2)

As you can see, the velocity for the first automobile is 10 m/s while the second one has a velocity of 25 m/s (with a greater time travelled) and both resulted in the same acceleration of 5 m/s².
