A skier is going down a hill at an initial velocity of 9 m/s East. The hill gets steeper and the skier's velocity increases to 18 m/s

East in 3 seconds. Find the acceleration.

MEANING

Respuesta :

Answer:

Acceleration is 3m/s2

Explanation:

From the question, the formula for acceleration is ∆velocit÷∆time.

V1=9m/s

V2=18m/s

T1=0 seconds

T2=3 seconds.

V1 represent initial velocity

V2 represent final velocity

T1 represent initial time

T2 represent final time.

Acceleration=v2-v1÷T2-T1

=18-9/3-0

=9÷3

=3m/s2.

Acceleration is 3m/s2.

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of a body per unit time.
