Answer:
a= - 4.2 m/s².
Explanation:
Given that
u = 22 m/s
v= 4.9 m/s
t= 4 s
The average acceleration = a
We know v = u +at
v=final velocity
u=initial velocity
Now by putting the values in the above equation
4.9= 22 + a x 4
[tex]a=\dfrac{4.9-22}{4}\ m/s^2[/tex]
a= - 4.2 m/s².
Therefore the acceleration will be - 4.2 m/s².
a= - 4.2 m/s².
Negative indicates that velocity and acceleration is is opposite direction.
