A spacecraft accelerates uniformly from 1,000 m/s to 4,000 m/s over a distance of 20,000 meters. What is its acceleration?
To find the spacecraft's acceleration, we can use the kinematic equation:
Where:
(final velocity)
(initial velocity)
(distance)
We need to rearrange the equation to solve for a (acceleration).
