While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 24 m/s to 15 m/s in 12 seconds. What is the automobile’s acceleration?

1 answer:

6 0

Average Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (ending speed) - (starting speed)

= 15 m/s - 24 m/s = -9 m/s

Acceleration = (-9 m/s) / (12 sec) = - 0.75 m/s² .

Answer:

a = -36.8 m/s/s

Explanation:

Initial speed of the car

$v_i = 90 m/s$

finally car will stop after it cover the distance

$d = 110 m$

so we have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

here we have

$0 - 90^2 = 2(a) (110)$

$a = \frac{90^2}{220}$

$a = -36.8 m/s^2$
