In the lab, you looked at speed-time graphs to determine the acceleration of the cart for each of the three fan speeds. what was the acceleration of the cart with low fan speed? cm/s2 what was the acceleration of the cart with medium fan speed? cm/s2 what was the acceleration of the cart with high fan speed? cm/s2

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over a period of time.  

Let vi be the initial velocity.

Let vf be the final velocity.

t is the time it took to go from vi to vf.

Acceleration is (vf-vi)/t

If the initial velocity was 2 cm/s and the final velocity was 10 cm/s, the object would have incresed it's velocity by (10 - 2) or 8 cm/s.  If iit took 10 seconds to reach vf, the acceleration would be:

(8 cm/s)/(10 s) = 0.8 cm/s^2
