Answer:
17.6 m/s²
Explanation:
Given:
= 90 m/s (final velocity)
= 2 m/s (initial velocity)
Δt = 5s (change in time)
The formula for acceleration is:
= Δv / Δt
We can find Δv by doing
Δv = -
Replace the values
Δv = 90m/s - 2m/s
Δv= 88m/s
Using the equation from earlier, we can find the acceleration by dividing the average velocity by time.
= Δv / Δt
=
acceleration = 17.6
