Question

The driver of a car moving at a velocity of 50 m/s applies brakes and eventually stops after 10 s. What is the acceleration of the car?

  1. 5 m/s2
  2. 4 m/s2
  3. 5 m/s2
  4. 4 m/s2

hintHint:

- 5 m/s²

The correct answer is: 5 m/s2


    Initial velocity = 50 m/s
    Final velocity = 0
    Time taken = 10 s
    The acceleration = (v – u) / t
    = (0 – 50)/ 10
    = - 50/10
    =5 m/s2.
