An airplane traveling 245 m/s east experiences turbulence, so the pilot slows down to 230 m/s. It takes the pilot 7
seconds to slow down to this speed. What is the acceleration of the plane? Round your answer to the nearest
hundredth
2.14 m/s2
-2.14 m/s2
67.86 m/s2
-67.86 m/s2

The acceleration rounded off to the nearest 100th is: -2.14 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Acceleration can be defined as the change in velocity over time.

The acceleration is negative in case of slowing down as the velocity goes from a higher value to lower value.

The formula for acceleration is:

[tex]a=\frac{Change\ in\ velocity}{time}\\a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}\\Here,\\v_f\ is\ final\ velocity\\v_1\ is\ initial\ velocity\\t\ is\ time[/tex]

Given

v_f = 230 m\s

v_i = 245 m\s

t = 7

Putting the values

[tex]a=\frac{230-245}{7}\\=\frac{-15}{7}\\=-2.14\ ms^{-2}[/tex]

Hence,

The acceleration rounded off to the nearest 100th is: -2.14 m/s^2
