In 15 seconds, an automobile accelerates from rest to 48 miles per hour. For the first six seconds, the acceleration increases consistently with time until it reaches a constant value. After 6 seconds, what is the velocity? in m/s
Hi I am in phyiscs I and it has the problem a runner ran the marathon (approx. 26.1) in 2 hours and 57 min. What was the average speed of the runner in m/s? I understand that I would have to divide the total distance by the total time, but I'm not sure how they changed the miles to meters. Please break it down so I can understand. I tried to solve it how you guys did it but I keep getting another answer. Thank you!
