Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. Suppose we call the rate of change of acceleration as ` SLAP ?. (i) What is the unit of SLAP` . (ii) How can we calculate instantaneous SLAP ? |
Answer» Given, SLAP ` (change in acceleration )/(time taken ) (i) The (SI) unti of ` SLAP is ` (m//s^(2))/s =m s^(-3)` (ii) Instantaneous ` SLAP` is the value of ` SLAP` at the given instant, which is the first derivative of accelertion at the given instant and can be written as Instantaneous ` SLAP= (Limit)/(Delta t rarr0) (Delta vec a)/(Delta t)) = (d vec a)/d t). |
