Question

45. Show that the acceleration of a hamster is 5 m/s2 when it
increases its velocity from rest to 10 m/s in 2 s.

Answer 1

The acceleration of the hamster is 5 m/s².

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time.

Given:

• Initial velocity (v₀): 0 m/s (rest)

• Final velocity (v): 10 m/s

• Time elapsed (t): 2 s

We can calculate the acceleration of the hamster using the following expression:

$a = \frac{v-v_0}{t} =\frac{10m/s-0m/s}{2s} = 5 m/s^{2}$

The acceleration of the hamster is 5 m/s².
