What is the formula for accerleration?
Final velocity minus starting velocity, divided by time it took. Ex. Speeding up you car from 40mph to 60 mph when going on to freeway. It took 2 seconds. 60mph - 20mph= 40mph/2sec =20mph 20mph is your acceleration.
How many hours would it take to drive 758 miles?
Depends on the average speed throughout the trip. 30mph-25.63 40mph-19 50mph-15 60mph-12.6
How is veloctionrelatedto both speed and direction?
Speed descibes the rate of motion of an object. Velocity describes rate of motion (speed) of an objectin a specific direction. For example - the car's speed was 60mph, the car's velocity was west at 60mph.
What is the maximum speed limit in a rural area?
In the UK it is 60mph for cars and motorcycles, 40mph for goods vehicles. Unless a lower speed limit is in force. This is assuming it is a single carriageway road.
What are the fastest animals in Yellowstone national park?
Antelope/Pronghorn is the fastest land animal at 60mph Wolf - 40mph Mountain Lion - 35mph Bison/Buffalo - 30mph Grizzly - 30mph
What is th meaning of velocity?
velocity means a speed and direction for example: if you say your driving 60mph then you are giving a speed but if you say your driving 60mph south then your giving a velocity.
What is the typical overall stopping distance at 40mph?
120ft.I discovered a formula for calculating it for any given speed. I've tested it for 20mph, 30mph,40mph,50mph,60mph and 70mph. The formula is as follows:overall stopping distance in ft = Sp x (1 + Sp/20).Where Sp is the magnitude of the speed in mph.So at 40mph it is:40 x (1 + 40/20) = 50 x (1 + 2) = 40 x 3 = 120ft.
How many houRS drive 270 miles?
How fast will you be traveling? @ 60mph=4:30 hours(give or take depending on trfc) @ 50mph=5:25 hours @ 40mph=6:35 hours
What is the minimum distance required to stop the train?
This depends upon the type of train, its tonnage. and the speed it is travelling. Passenger trains can stop much faster than a freight train. A passenger train at normal speeds of 60mph to 110 mph can be stopped in well under a mile, minimum distance as short as 2500 feet. A heavy freight train traveling at 40mph can take nearly 2 miles to stop.
What is vector in math?
Simply put, a vector is 2 dimensional. Think of speed - it is only one dimensional. It is not a vector, it is a scalar. It is measured in a scale, most commonly noticed when inside a vehicle. You are travelling at 100km/h (60mph) Vectors are 2 dimensional, they have a magnitude and a direction. Think of velocity, as an arrow - imagine you are travelling at 60 mph in a northerly direction, your arrow would be pointing to the notth, with a magnitude of 60mph, If you were travelling at 60mph in a southerly direction, your velocity vector would be pointing towards the south, the exact opposite of your vector if you were travelling in a northerly direction. However the speed in these two scenario's, speed not being a vector, remains exactly the same, 60mph.
Truck shaking over 40mph to 60mph and stops the shake if I take off the foot from gas pedal and resumes if I touch the pedal back?
sound like a bad universal joint, vibration more noticable under load?
What do you need to know to determine the velocity of a moving object?
Velocity means speed and direction. If one car was travelling 60mph northwards and one car was travelling 60mph southwards, they would both have the same speed but they would have different velocities. Acceleration means a change in velocity; this could be a change in speed or direction or both.
