A motorized scooter starts from rest and accelerates for 4 seconds at 2 m/s ^ 2. Calculate the avergae velocity of the scooter for the interval 0-4 seconds. Hint Find Vf then find the average in the normal way

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

acceleration = 2m/s²

time = 4secs

initial velocity u = 0m/s (motor starts from rest)

Using the equation of motion v = u+at

v = 0+2(4)

v =0+8

v = 8m/s

Hence the final velocity of the car s 8m/s.

Average velocity = distance / time

S = ut + 1/2at²

S = 0+1/2(2)4²

S = 16m

If the distance covered is 16m

Average velocity = 16/4

Average velocity = 4m/s
