Hi,
I just want to make sure I understand acceleration
α = Δv / Δt
α = vf - vi / tf - ti
α = 8m - 0m / 4s - 0s
α = 8m / 4s
α = 2 m/s2
So I know it has a constant acceleration of 2 m/s2
what I want to know does this mean that the object will increase in acceleration for example
I have two diagrams I created, now when the car accelerates does this mean at 1 second it is 2m/s2 and at 2 seconds it is increase by 4 m/s2 and at 3 seconds it has increased to 6 m/s2 and at 4 seconds it has increase to 8 m/s2
Am I understanding this correctly help would be appreciated
