The graph shows position versus time for an object moving with the constant acceleration. what is the final velocity of the object at t=10s? assume the initial velocity at the origin is 1 m/s. 3.32 m/s
4.0 m/s
3.0 m/s
3.8 m/s

  3.0 m/s

Explanation:

The equation of motion for constant acceleration (a) is ...

The problem statement tells us v₀ = 1, and we read from the graph that x₀=1. We also read from the graph that x(10) = 21. Filling these values into the equation, we can find a and x'(10).

The final velocity of the object at t=10 s is about 3.0 m/s.

Comment on the graph

We note this graph better represents increasing acceleration than it does constant acceleration. x(2) = 3.4 per the equation. It is graphed as about 4.

scientific laws are the result of testing theories and proving them to be facts.
