How much time does the blood take to reach its final velocity?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the time it takes for blood to reach its final velocity of +26 cm/s from rest, given a displacement of +20 cm. The relevant equations for accelerated motion are provided: Vf² = Vi² + 2*a*s for determining acceleration and a = (Vi + Vf) / t for calculating time. By applying these formulas, users can derive both acceleration and time effectively, reinforcing the importance of mastering these fundamental physics equations.

the left ventricle of the heart accleartes blood from rest toi a velocity of +26 cm/s.
A)if the displacement of the blood during the acceleration is +20 cm, determine its accleatrion in (cm/s)
b) How much time does the blood take to reach its final velcoity?


Kindly please provide steps by steps so i can learn better!

Thanks

You are given final and initial velocities and displacement, but not time.

The equation for accelerated motion when time is unknown is
A) Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2*a*s where Vf is final velocity and Vi is initial velocity. Solve for a.

Now that you know a, use your definition of acceleration:
B) a = (Vi + Vf) / t solve for t.

You need to know these formulas! They come up again and again in physics.
 
What he said, in laTex:

V_{final}^{2} = U_{initial}^{2} + 2as

Where:
V = Final Velocity
U = Initial Velocity
a = Acceleration (in ms if U and V and s are in meters.)
s = Displacement
