💡 S = Displacement

💡 U = intial velocity

💡 V = finial velocity

💡 a = acceleration

💡 T = time

V = u + at

v2 = u2 + 2as

A car can accelerates at 3.0ms^2 how long would it take to


accelerate from 15.0ms^-1 to 31.5ms^-1.

31.5 = 15.0 + 3.0t

16.5 = 3.0t

t = 5.5

The same car took 1.5s to stop. Find it’s acceraltion.


(0 − 31.5)
a=
1.5

a = −21

A plane flying at 200.0 ms^-1 acceleration for 6.2sec during which it travelled
2000 m fund it’s accretion.

(200 − 0)
a=
6.5

a = 30.8

A stone is tossed up at 2ms^-1 if gravity provides an acceleration of 10ms^-2 find
how for it would go up and how long this would take

U= 2

a = -10ms^2

V=0

t=?

S=?

0 = 2 + (−10)t

−2 = −10t

t = 0.2

U= 2

a = -10ms^2

V=0

t = 0.2

S=?

1
s = 2 ∗ 0.2 + (−10) ∗ 0.22

s = 0.2

A Nissan GTR weighs approx. 1740kg.

1. Find the force needed to accelerate at 3.0m/s^2

a=3.0

m=1740

F = 1740 ∗ 3

F = 5220N
