a =vf-vi/t is the equation for calculating the acceleration of an object. Write out the relationship shown in the equation, using words.
man i wish i could read.
@josh
The hell did I just walk into?
i come u face???
acceleration = (final velocity-initial velocity)/time
I have added the parentheses. I think they should be there in the original expression.
No
lol what
The equation a = (vf - vi) / t represents the relationship between acceleration, initial velocity, final velocity, and time.
To explain the relationship using words, let's break it down:
- Acceleration (a) refers to the rate at which an object's velocity changes over time. It can be thought of as how quickly the object is speeding up or slowing down.
- Initial velocity (vi) represents the object's velocity at the starting point of the time interval being considered. It refers to the speed and direction of the object at the beginning.
- Final velocity (vf) represents the object's velocity at the ending point of the time interval being considered. It refers to the speed and direction of the object at the end.
- Time (t) represents the duration of the interval between the initial and final velocities. It measures how long it takes for the object's velocity to change.
The equation states that the acceleration of an object can be calculated by finding the difference between the final velocity and the initial velocity and then dividing it by the duration of the interval (time). In other words, if you want to determine how fast an object is accelerating during a specific time period, you can subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide it by the time taken.
