The acceleration of an object is 5 km `h^(-2)`. What is its value in SI units ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To convert the acceleration from kilometers per hour squared (km/h²) to meters per second squared (m/s²), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the units The given acceleration is in km/h². We need to convert this to m/s². ### Step 2: Convert kilometers to meters 1 kilometer (km) is equal to 1000 meters (m). Therefore, we can express the acceleration as: \[ 5 \text{ km/h}^2 = 5 \times 1000 \text{ m/h}^2 = 5000 \text{ m/h}^2 \] ...
