To calculate the rate of acceleration, you need to know the change in velocity of the Basketball over the 4 seconds. If you have the initial and final velocities, you can use the formula: acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time. For example, if the basketball's initial velocity is 0 m/s and its final velocity is 8 m/s, the acceleration would be (8 m/s - 0 m/s) / 4 s = 2 m/s².
Acceleration is an object's change in velocity divided by its change in time. So: acceleration=(final velocity - initial velocity)/(final time - initial time)
Acceleration= Distance/time (distance divided by time) That's the dumbest answer I've ever heard.. Acceleration = Final Velocity - Initial Velocity/Time Velocity = Displacement/Time So you can't calculate acceleration from distance and time, you can only do velocity.
Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the time taken for that change to occur.
A=Vf-Vi/t Acceleration is the final velocity minus the initial velocity divided by the time it too to reach it
No, acceleration is calculated as the change in velocity divided by time. It is the rate at which the velocity of an object changes. Mathematically, acceleration is represented as (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.
Acceleration = (change in velocity) divided by (time for the change)
Change in velocity divided by time is acceleration, but velocity divided by time has no particular significance.
A=Vf-Vi/t Acceleration is the final velocity minus the initial velocity divided by the time it too to reach it
Time equals velocity divided by acceleration. t=v/a
It is acceleration. The difference between final velocity and initial velocity, divided by the time is the AVERAGE acceleration. Remember, though that velocity is a vector. So if you are going round in a circle at a constant speed, your direction of motion is changing continuously and so you are always accelerating!
Acceleration is the change in velocity over a time period. Since you need to know the change in velocity to calculate acceleration, the question being asked is not answerable.
Time.
