An airplane went from 120 m/s to 180 m/s in 4.0 seconds. what was its acceleration?

15 m/s^2 The first thing to calculate is the difference between the final and initial velocities. So 180 m/s - 120 m/s = 60 m/s So the plane changed velocity by a total of 60 m/s. Now divide that change in velocity by the amount of time taken to cause that change in velocity, giving 60 m/s / 4.0 s = 15.0 m/s^2 Since you only have 2 significaant figures, round the result to 2 significant figures giving 15 m/s^2

When you go to ask a qustion there will be a picture of a paper clip looking thing and then it will pop up your files and you click on the imajes and then you up load it
