While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 24 m/s to 15 m/s in 12 seconds. What is the automobile's acceleration? (Remember that a negative value indicates a slowing down or deceleration.) don't forget to write the formula(1pt.) and the unit (1pt.)

Acceleration = -0.75 m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 24 m/s

Final velocity = 15 m/s

Time = 12 seconds

To find the acceleration of the automobile;

Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Acceleration = -0.75 m/s²

Therefore, the automobile is decelerating because its final velocity is lesser than its initial velocity, leading to a negative value.

f is prop to m1xm2 double m1 double force

the answer is f1 and d2 because if you put equal force on those two points the beam would balance trust me on this
