Homework Practice
Because the initial velocity of the eyelid was zero meters/second, the term (initial velocity) x (time) will cancel out, and we will be left with the equation below.
After plugging in what we know, we have the equation below.
After plugging the equation above into my calculator, I got an acceleration which is equal to + 0.784 m/s/s. Make sure you get the same when you plug the equation into your calculator. If you do not, get in touch with Ms. Clanton for calculator help.
Note: Acceleration is a vector quantity and so requires a direction. The direction for the acceleration of the eyelid is the sign of the acceleration, or the positive direction.
