Answer:
acceleration(a) = 20m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]
Explanation:
Using one of the equations of motion;
v = u + at
where;
v = final velocity of the spaceship
=> v = 60m/s
u = initial velocity of the spaceship
=> u = 0m/s
a = acceleration of the spaceship
t = time taken for the acceleration of the spaceship
=> t = 3 s
Substituting these values into the equation gives;
=> 60 = 0 + a (3)
=> 60 = 3a
Making a the subject of the formula
=> a = [tex]\frac{60}{3}[/tex]
=> a = 20m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]
Therefore the acceleration of the spaceship is 20m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]
