n astronaut has left the International Space Station to test a new space scooter. Her partner measures the following velocity changes, each taking place in a time interval 11.2 s . What are the average acceleration in each interval? Assume that the positive direction is to the right.

Answer:-

-1 m/s^2

Explanation:

The average acceleration is given by dividing the change in velocity by change in time;

[tex]a_f=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t_f-t_i}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{(0-11.2)}{(11.2-0)}=-1 m/s^2[/tex]

the point to be noted here is if the velocity is to the left we substitute it with a negative sign and if it is to the right we substitute it with a positive sign.
