Determine the acceleration of the body in rectilinear uniformly accelerated motion if, within 10 s

Determine the acceleration of the body in rectilinear uniformly accelerated motion if, within 10 s, the speed of the summer has changed from 15 to 20 m / s.

The acceleration of the body in rectilinear uniformly accelerated motion is calculated by the formula:

a = (V – V0) / t, where V is the final velocity of the body (V = 20 m / s), V0 is the initial velocity of the body (V0 = 15 m / s), t is the time of motion of the body (t = 10 s) …

Let’s calculate the acceleration of the body:

a = (V – V0) / t = (20 – 15) / 10 = 5/10 = 0.5 m / s².

Answer: The acceleration of the body is equal to 0.5 m / s².
