The bike skids 41.5 m 41.5m41, point, 5, start text, m, end text with constant acceleration before it comes to a stop. What was the acceleration of the motorbike as it came to a stop?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity , u = 27 m/s

displacement before stop,  s = 41.5 m .

final velocity,  v = 0

acceleration a = ?

v² = u² + 2 a s

0 = 27² + 2 x a x 41.5

a = - 27² / 2 x 41.5

= - 8.78 m /s
