Physics

To find the average acceleration of the soccer ball, we can use the formula for acceleration:

Where:

is the final velocity (12 m/s in the opposite direction, so it will be -12 m/s)

is the initial velocity (8 m/s, which will be considered positive)

is the time interval (0.2 s)

Substituting in the values:
