Acceleration Calculations
Acceleration means a change in speed or direction. It can also be defined as a change in velocity per unit time.

8. A train is accelerating at a rate of 2 m/s. If its initial velocity is 20 m/s, what is its velocity after 30
seconds?
9. A runner achieves a velocity of 11.1 m/s, 9 sec after he begins. What is his acceleration? What distance
did he cover?
