A classical mechanics problem by Tammu Triveni

A body is moving with a velocity of 2 m/s. after 4 seconds the velocity of the body becomes 5 m/s. Find the acceleration of the body?

Details

  • Assume constant acceleration.


The answer is 0.75.

Given Initial velocity u =2 m/s Final velocity v =5 m/s Using v=u+at we can get the acceleration a=0.75
