Acceleration is sometimes expressed in multiples of g,where g= 9.8 m/s².
Is the acceleration of an object due to the earth's gravity.In a car crash,the car's forward velocity may go from 29 m/s. To 0 m/s.
In 0.15 s How many g's are experienced,on average,by the driver?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The average acceleration is calculated using the formula: a = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time = (0 m/s - 29 m/s) / 0.15 s = -193.33 m/s². To express this in g's, divide by 9.8 m/s²: -193.33 m/s² / 9.8 m/s² ≈ -19.74 g, which rounds to approximately 20 g.
