Aspaceship starting from a resting position accelerates at a constant rate of 9.8 m/s. how far will the spaceship travel if its final speed is 1 percent of the speed of light (300, 000, 000 m/s? )

300 000 0 squared = 2 x 9.8 distance

KINEMATICS

Uniform or constant motion in a straight line (rectilinear). Speed or velocity constant and/or acceleration constant. If motion is up and down and/or has an up and down component then acceleration omn earth will be g. g is about 10m/s/s.

speed = distance/time

velocity = displacement/time

s=distance ... u=initial speed ... v = final speed ... a = acceleration ... t = time

v=u+at

v^2=u^2+2as

s=ut+1/2at^2

convex lenses are thicker at the middle. rays of light that pass through the lens are brought closer together (they converge). a convex lens is a converging lens. when parallel rays of light pass through a convex lens the refracted rays converge at one point called the principal focus.
