A cart moves along a track at a velocity of 3.5 cm/s. When a force is applied to the cart, its velocity increases to 8.2 cm/s. If it takes the cart 1.5 seconds to reach 8.2 cm/s, what is the acceleration of the cart?

Answer:

3.13cm/s²

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity u = 3.5cm/s

Final velocity v = 8.2cm/s

Time t = 1.5secs

Required

Acceleration of the cart a

To get that, we will use the equation of motion

v = u+at

Substitute the given parameters

8.2 = 3.5+1.5a

1.5a = 8.2-3.5

1.5a = 4.7

a = 4.7/1.5

a = 3.13cm/s²

Hence the acceleration to the cart is 3.13cm/s²
