Question

you ride your bike at a constant speed of 12 m/s for 100 s from your house to the mailbox. what was your acceleration for the trip?
a= (vf - vi)/t
(1 point)
○ 8.33 m/s^2
○ 0.58 m/s ^2
○ 0 m/s^2
○ 120 m/s ^2

Explanation:

Step1: Identify initial and final velocities

Since speed is constant, $V_i = 12$ m/s and $V_f=12$ m/s.

Step2: Apply acceleration formula

The acceleration formula is $a=\frac{V_f - V_i}{t}$. Substitute $V_i = 12$ m/s, $V_f = 12$ m/s and $t = 100$ s into the formula: $a=\frac{12 - 12}{100}$.

Step3: Calculate acceleration

$a=\frac{0}{100}=0$ m/s².

Answer:

0 m/s²
