A dog runs with an initial speed of 7.5 m/s on a waxed floor. It slides to a stop in 15 seconds. What is the acceleration?
To find the acceleration, we use the formula:
Where:
is the change in velocity
is the time taken
Initial velocity (u) = 7.5 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (the dog comes to stop)
Time (t) = 15 seconds
Calculate the change in velocity ():
