Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6 m/s to 12 m/s in a period of 2 s. What is your acceleration?

For this case the equation of movement is given by:


vf = a*t + vo

Where,

vf: final speed

a: acceleration

t: time

vo: initial speed

Clearing the acceleration we have:


a =(vf - vo)/(t)

Substituting values:


a =(12 - 6)/(2)

Rewriting:


a =(6)/(2)


a=3

Answer:

your acceleration is:


a = 3(m)/(s^2)
