1. Calculate the end velocity of a rocket that traveled 16km in 2 seconds.

distance

time

2. Calculate the rockets acceleration m with a start velocity of 0m/s and the end velocity from #1 for 10 seconds.

(final velocity - start velocity)

time

* Be sure to include units!

1}800m/s

2}80m/s²

Explanation:

1]first convert the kilometers to meters so as to obtain similar units;

16*1000=16000m (1Km=1000m)

then divide the ditance by time:

speed=distance/time

=16000m/2s

=800m/s

2]acceleration = (initial velocity - final velocity) / time taken

= (800m/s-0m/s) / 10s

=800m/s/10s

=80m/s²
