A fighter plane is descending at 30 m/s. The pilot ejects, and the ejector seat accelerates him upwards at 120 m/s2 for 2 seconds. What is his velocity at the end of the 2 seconds?

Answer:

210m/s upwards

Step-by-step explanation:

u= -30m /s

a= 120m/s^2

t=2s

v=u+at

=(-30)+(120x2)

=240-30

=210m/s
