Answer:
t = 16.5s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Acceleration = 3.1m/s²
Initial velocity = 0m/s
Final velocity = 51m/s
Unknown:
Time taken = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem we need to reiterate that acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
So;
Acceleration = [tex]\frac{v - u }{t}[/tex]
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
So;
3.1 = [tex]\frac{51 - 0}{t}[/tex]
3.1t = 51
t = 16.5s
