Help me with physics pls

[Zeblote]

I don't know how to do this halp

The task is a ball has an inital speed of 0m/s, does constantly accelerate, and reaches 75cm after 2.5s.

What I know:
-Initial speed 0m/s
-Total distance: 75cm
-Mass: 410 grams (I think this is unimportant)
-Time: 2.5s

What I need to know:
-Acceleration

Tell me how to calculate this :c

.. are you kidding me

the question is "how fast does a 410 gram object need to go to travel 75 cm in 2.5 seconds"
it's really simple

the question is "how fast does a 410 gram object need to go to travel 75 cm in 2.5 seconds"
it's really simple

But it's starting at 0m/s and accelerating
How

[Port]

But it's starting at 0m/s and accelerating
How

unless the question is actually how fast it needs to accelerate (e.g. in cm per second), that's irrelevant

:(

[Stocking]

Acceleration is velocity divided by time. Pay attention in class.

I think the question is looking for how fast it needs to move. I don't know if you can calculate acceleration without the final velocity.

Are you joking me

You're right

velocity; change in position
acceleration; change in velocity

I think the question is looking for how fast it needs to move.

yeah, in that case it's pretty much simple division

I don't know if you
can calculate acceleration without the final velocity.

Well at least you can mathematically confirm the answer.

She's not wrong.

final velocity - initial velocity / time = acceleration

[Ipquarx]

I don't know if you can calculate acceleration without the final velocity.

no, you can

d = v₁Δt + 1/2 aΔt²

[Thé Lord Tony]

Flick it with your finger.

[Zeblote]

Flick it with your finger.

What

no, you can

d = v₁Δt + 1/2 aΔt²

What's the d?

[Port]

What's the d?

If you don't know then you have a terrible teacher or you haven't gotten to the subject yet and the answer is something else entirely
