You are riding a jet ski at 75 m/s and notice something in the water ahead of you. It takes you 10 seconds to slow down and come to a stop(0 m/s). What was your average acceleration? Plz help!!!

Answer:

Im pretty sure its 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

your initial ( starting) velocity was 75. Your final velocity was 0. 75 / 0 = 0 m/s.

BUT you are calculating your acceleration, so it would be 75 - 0 divided by 10 = 7.5
