Answer:
From certain assumptions that the walking speed is 2 m/s, and the stop time is 0.1 s the acceleration would be -20 m/s
Explanation:
Using the average acceleration formula:
where
and
are the changes in the speed and time respectively.
We have by assuming that the walking speed is 2 m/s and the stop time is 0.1s which is equal to the change in time during the stopping.
, where
are the initial speed and final speed respectively, and
Plugging the previous in the average acceleration formula we get
where the minus sign indicates an acceleration in the opposite direction of the motion (or in other word opposite to the speed's direction).
