Question

An auto, moving too fast on a horizontal stretch of mountain road, slides off the road,

falling into deep snow 43.9 m below the road and 87.7 m beyond the edge of the road. What was the acceleration 10m below the edge of the road?

Answer 1

acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we can deduce that the only force that will be acting on the car is gravity and as such the acceleration during free fall will be equal to the acceleration due to gravity but will be negative since it is towards the ground.

Thus, acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²
