A bicyclist traveling on a straight road went from 0 m/s to 6m/s in 2 seconds. What was the bicyclist’s acceleration?
2 m/s/s
3 m/s/s
6 m/s/s
12 m/s/s
6m/s / 2s = 3 m/s/s
To find the bicyclist's acceleration, we can use the formula:
acceleration = (change in velocity) / (time taken)
In this case, the change in velocity is 6 m/s (from 0 m/s to 6 m/s), and the time taken is 2 seconds.
Thus, the acceleration can be calculated as:
acceleration = 6 m/s / 2 s = 3 m/s/s
Therefore, the bicyclist's acceleration is 3 m/s/s.
