We can solve for the acceleration by using a kinematic equation. First we should identify what we know so we can choose the correct equation.
We are given an original velocity of 24 m/s, a final velocity of 0 m/s, and a time of 6 s. We and looking for acceleration (a) in m/s^2.
The following equation has everything we need:
So plug in the known values and solve for a:
0 = 24 + 6a
-24 = 6a
a = -4 m/s^2
