Find the uniform acceleration that will cause an object's spped to change from 32 m/s to 96 m/s in an 8.0 s period.

Acceleration is a change in velocity with respect to time.
To find the acceleration, find the change in velocity divided by the change in time.
The question explicitly states the change in time is 8 seconds.
To find the change in velocity, subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity (96 m/s - 32 m/s = 64 m/s).
Now just plug the values into the equation,
a = delta v / delta t
a = 64 m/s / 8 s
a = 8 m/s^2

Acceleration is the change in speed per change in time. A=(V2-V1)/t. You can do the math

why every one is asking for HOMEWORK help man? i love physics and i had like to answer people's questions that are not related to HW.
sorry do you HW by yourself.
