Why is acceleration inversely proportional to time squared?
2 Answers
Please refer to explanation
Explanation:
The S.I. unit of acceleration is
Lets checkout.
we know the S.I. unit of distance is
and of time is
& velocity is displacement per unit time so unit of velcity become
and acceleration is change is velocity per unit time
representing is S.I. units
S.I unit of acceleration
[remember change in velocity will also have unit
hope it helps!!
See explanation
Explanation:
Its all to do with rate of increase in velocity
Suppose the velocity increased by 2 seconds at every second
Time in seconds
Velocity in
metres per second
Given that
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The units of measurement fail
Set time as represented by
Then the velocity at any time time
We end up with only 'metres' as the unit of measurement. For velocity we must have metres per second
To
So we use
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
