Kinematics equations tells us the position of an object under constant acceleration increases linearly with time.
A. True
B. False

Respuesta :

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Suppose that we have an object that moves with constant acceleration A.

Then the acceleration of the object is defined by the equation:

a(t) = A

The acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity, then the velocity equation is given by the integration of the acceleration equation, we will get:

v(t) = A*t + V₀

Where V₀ is the velocity of the object at the time t = 0s.

Now, if we integrate it again, we will get the position equation:

p(t) = (1/2)*A*t^2 + V₀*t + P₀

Where P₀ is the initial position equation.

Here, we can see that the position equation is a quadratic equation (not a linear equation), then the statement is false.
