Answer:
Airplanes acceleration is [tex]-6 m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity with time.
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. It is given by the equation
[tex]a= \frac{v-u}{t}[/tex]
In the given question the airplane travelling at the speed of 60 comes to a stop in 10 seconds.
Thus initial velocity u= [tex]60 m/s [/tex]
Final velocity v=[tex]0 m/s [/tex]
time t=[tex]10 s[/tex]
Acceleration [tex]a= \frac{0-60}{10}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{-60}{10}[/tex]
= [tex]-6 m/s^2[/tex]
