a train traveling at 48 m/s begins to slow down as it approaches a bend in the tracks. if it travels around the bend at a speed of 14 m/s and it takes 40 seconds to properly slow down what is the acceleration acting on the train during this time?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The acceleration acting on the train during this

time of travel is 0.85m/s²

HOW TO CALCULATE ACCELERATION:

• The acceleration of a moving body can be calculated by using the formula below:

a = (v - u)/t

Where;

1. a = acceleration (m/s²)

2. v = final velocity (m/s) 3. u = initial velocity (m/s)

4. t = time (s)

According to this question, a = ?, v = 48m/s, u = 14m/s, t = 40s.

= (48 - 14)/40 a=

• a = 34/40

• a = 0.85m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration acting on the train during this time of travel is 0.85m/s².

Hope this helps!
