QUESTION:
These are “plug-in-the-number” type activities to familiarize yon with the equations that link the concepts of physics. They are mainly one-step substitutions and are less challenging than the Problem. ? Calculate the acceleration of a ball that starts from rest, rolls down a ramp, and gains a speed of 25 m/s in 5 seconds.
ANSWER:Solution Step 1 of 2 Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity or it is the ratio of change in velocity to the time taken for the change. It tells about, how fast the object gains or losses its speed. That is, a = change in veloci=y v time taken t Where a is the acceleration, v is the change in velocity in the given interval of time t. Acceleration is a vector, it has both magnitude and direction.
