Question

A rocket lifts vertically off the launching pad and reaches a final velocity of 450 m/s in 15 seconds. What is its acceleration

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 30 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{v}{t}$

where

v is the velocity

t is the time

From the question

v = 450 m/s

t = 15 s

We have

$a = \frac{450}{15}$

We have the final answer as

30 m/s²

Hope this helps you
