QuestionA train accelerates from rest to 60 m/s60 \mathrm{~m/s} in 40 s40 \mathrm{~s}. Find its acceleration. A boat slows from 18 m/s18 \mathrm{~m/s} to stop in 6 s6 \mathrm{~s}. Find its acceleration.

Studdy Solution
Calculate the acceleration.
Acceleration=18m/s6s=3m/s2Acceleration = \frac{-18\, m/s}{6\, s} = -3\, m/s^2The acceleration (or in this case, deceleration) of the boat is 3m/s2-3\, m/s^2.
