Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6 m/s to 11 m/s in a period of 2 s. What is your acceleration?

Given

velocityΔ v₁ = 6m/s

v₂ = 11m/s

Δ time = Δ t = 2s

sign / indicate as division.

acceleration a = Δv/ Δt

a = (v₂-v₁) / Δt

a = (11m/s -6m/s ) / 2s

a = (5m/s) / 2s

accerelation a = 2.5m
