In general life we can observe so many times the acceleration, For example: There is a forward push when the bus suddenly starts and lift gives upward push when it starts to move upward. So these things happen because of change in velocity which is known as acceleration.

So, Acceleration is defined as the rate at which the velocity is increases by the time. We represent acceleration as “a”.

a = change in velocity
Time taken
Or, a = Vf – Vi
t

Where, Vf = final velocity

And Vi = Initial velocity

S.I unit of acceleration is m/s^2.

Example: A race car accelerates uniformly from 16.5 m/s to 36.1 m/s in 1.47 seconds. Determine the

acceleration of the car and the distance travelled.

Solution: Given that,

Final velocity, v2 = 36.1 m/s

Initial velocity, v1 = 16.5 m/s

Time taken, t = 1.47 sec

Using the equation of acceleratio

Acceleration, a = (v2 – v1)/t = (36.1 – 16.5)/1.47

= 13.33 m/s^2

Example: A bike accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 5.10 m/s in 2.5 sec. Determine the

acceleration of the bike.

Solution: Given that,
Final velocity, v2 = 5.10 m/s

Initial velocity, v1 = 0 m/s

Time taken, t = 2.5 sec

Using the equation of acceleration,

Acceleration, a = (v2 – v1)/t = (5.10 – 0)/2.5 = 2.04 m/s^2.

I just want you to know how great Brinda has been in tutoring me on probability. She is patient and very knowledgeable in all concepts. I look forward to many more sessions with her. I appreciate her help and the great work that Tutor Pace is doing.

I have enjoyed my session with Aparna and it was helpful. I will hope to see her as my Math tutor in future sessions as well.

Your tutor has been such an inspiration to me as I have difficulty getting some of the physics concepts down and truly understanding them. She takes the time to fully explain each and every aspect of any problem I might ask for help and always with encouragement and humor.
