A tomado was moving at a velocity of 10 miles/hour north five minutes later the tomado is moving at a rate of 25 miles/hour north. What was the tornado's acclaration?

Respuesta :

Answer:

180.7km/hr²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 10miles/hr

Final velocity  = 25miles/hr

Time taken = 5minutes

     To hr

               60min  = 1hr

               5min gives 0.083hr

Unknown:

Acceleration  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem,

   Acceleration  = [tex]\frac{v - u}{t}[/tex]  

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

  Acceleration  = [tex]\frac{25 - 10}{0.083}[/tex]   = 180.7km/hr²
