Question

A spaceship accelerates from 0 m/s to 60 m/s north in 3 seconds. what is the acceleration of the spaceship?

Answer 1

The acceleraton of the spaceship is 20 m/s^2. Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.

Answer 2

Answer:

acceleration(a) = 20m/$s^{2}$

Explanation:

Using one of the equations of motion;

v = u + at

where;

v = final velocity of the spaceship

=> v = 60m/s

u = initial velocity of the spaceship

=> u = 0m/s

a = acceleration of the spaceship

t = time taken for the acceleration of the spaceship

=> t = 3 s

Substituting these values into the equation gives;

=> 60 = 0 + a (3)

=> 60 = 3a

Making a the subject of the formula

=> a = $\frac{60}{3}$

=> a = 20m/$s^{2}$

Therefore the acceleration of the spaceship is 20m/$s^{2}$
