Ellie is running down the street at 10 m/s. She sees a double-tall latte on the road ahead of her and starts sprinting. After 5 seconds have passed, Ellie is running 15 m/s. Assuming she does not change directions, what was Ellie’s acceleration?

Respuesta :

Answer:

2m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

acceleration = change in velocity/time taken

a  = v-u/t

Given

v = 15m/s

u = 5m/s

time t = 5secs

Substitute

a = 15 - 5/5

a = 10/5

a = 2m/s²

Hence Ellie’s acceleration is 2m/s²
