Question 4 • Physics

Which formula is used to find an object’s acceleration?

Answer
A
A is equal to triangle t over triangle v
B
A is equal to triangle v over triangle t
C
A is equal to triangle t minus triangle v
D
A is equal to triangle v plus triangle t

Explanation

Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the time taken for that change: a = Δv / Δt. Here, Δv means the change in velocity and Δt means the change in time, so choice A, “A is equal to triangle v over triangle t,” gives the correct formula.
