Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

magnitude of the average acceleration is 4.16 m/s²

Explanation:

given data

initial velocity u = 5 m/s

distance s = 3 m

final velocity v = 0

to find out

magnitude of the average acceleration

solution

we will apply here linear motion equation that is

v²-u² = 2×a×s   ..............1

put here all these value

v is final velocity and u is initial velocity and s is distance

0²-5² = 2×a×3

a = -4.16

so magnitude of the average acceleration is 4.16 m/s²
