The y-component of the acceleration is
Explanation:
The y-component of the ice skater acceleration can be calculated with the equation
where
is the y-component of the final velocity
is the y-component of the initial velocity
t is the time elapsed
Here we have:
- Initial velocity is
at
, so its y-component is
- Final velocity is
at
, so its y-component is
The time elapsed is
t = 8.33 s
Therefore, the y-component of the acceleration is
