\"AverageThe term acceleration<\/strong> comes from acceleration<\/em>, a word from Latin. Its about act and consequence of accelerating<\/strong> (Increase speed, give speed). Half<\/strong>, on the other hand, it can refer to that which is located in the middle of something or in an intermediate space.<\/p>\n

In the field of physics, speed is a vector changes direction and modulus as the body moves in its path. The acceleration of a Body<\/strong>, on the other hand, appears when its speed is modified<\/strong>, whether a change takes place in the direction or in the modulus of the vector that represents it. <\/p>\n

Refering to average acceleration<\/strong> that exists between two points, is calculated by dividing the speed change<\/strong> and the weather<\/strong> that passes between these points. To build the equation<\/strong> of average acceleration we need to know, therefore, the following values: the initial velocity; the final speed; the initial time; the end time.<\/p>\n

Having sayings data<\/strong> at our disposal, it is possible to obtain the respective variations (the speed and time), for which we simply subtract the initial value to the end. The last step is to divide the speed variation by the time variation.<\/p>\n

Note that the variation is represented by the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet, delta<\/strong>In its capitalized form, which has a triangular shape. For speed, since it is a vector<\/strong>, a small arrow should be drawn above the variable v<\/em>. The image shows the complete equation, with these symbols for a correct reading.<\/p>\n

\"AverageSuppose a car passes by point a<\/strong> at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour<\/strong> and, two hours later, through the point B<\/strong> at a speed of 150 kilometers per hour<\/strong>. Taking into account the equation mentioned in the previous paragraph, the average acceleration arises from the division of 50 kilometers per hour<\/strong> (the gear change) for two hours (the weather<\/strong> that required mobilization from the first point to the second point). This average acceleration, therefore, is 25 kilometers per hour squared<\/strong>, which reveals that the car varied its speed by 25 kilometers per hour every hour.<\/p>\n

As can be noted, the average acceleration refers to how speed changes per unit time<\/strong>. Different is the case of average speed<\/strong>, which measures how long it takes a body to travel a given distance. In the example above, we should know how far point A to point B stood to calculate the average speed, because we know that time route<\/strong> it was two hours.<\/p>\n

It is worth mentioning that the acceleration is calculated in meters per second squared<\/strong>, as indicated in the International System of Units. Since this is not easy for non-physicists to understand, especially because of the presence of empowerment<\/strong> (Process of mathematics that involves raising an expression or a number to a given power), see the following example: if an object moves with an acceleration of 2 meters per second squared is correct to say that its speed varies in 2 meters per second, every second.<\/p>\n

The concept of average acceleration can serve to analyze a large number of situations, especially in the sports world, where human beings are challenged itself to develop to the maximum their physical abilities, because it needs to know in depth the tool that it possesses to relate to the environment. The same is true in the field of motorsports and computer simulation, although in the latter case the knowledge is used to recreate a phenomenon<\/strong>Rather leave this to get to the analysis.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n
