Acceleration Worksheet - PC\|MAC



Acceleration Worksheet Name: _________________________

Use the formula: acceleration = Final Velocity - Initial Velocity

Time

to solve the following. Be sure to show all work and units.

1. An object is traveling at 10 m/s, 2 seconds later it is traveling at 15 m/s.

2. An object slows from 30 m/s to 5 m/s in 5 seconds.

3. An object is traveling at 50 m/s, 5 seconds later it is traveling at 15 m/s.

4. A car accelerates from a resting position to 100 mi/hr in 7 seconds.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. Consider your answers above: What does a positive acceleration indicate about the motion of the object? What does a negative acceleration indicate?
