Answer:
a = - 11.53[m/s^2]
Explanation:
The airplane slows down as its speed decreases from the initial value of 610 [m/s] to zero.
To calculate the acceleration value we use the following kinematics equation:
where:
Vf = final velocity = 0
Vi = initial velocity = 610 [m/s]
a = acceleration [m/s2]
t = time = 53 [s]
Now replacing:
0 = 610 + (a*53)
-610 = 53*a
a = - 11.53[m/s^2]
The negative sign means that the aircraft is losing speed, i.e. slowing down
