Question

A bullet has an initial velocity of 1000 meters per second. 5 seconds later, it has a velocity

of 500 meters per second. What is the acceleration of the bullet?
O
A. 300 meters/second/second in the opposite
direction of travel
O
B. 100 meters/second second in the same
direction of travel
O
C. 100 meters/second second in the same
direction of travel
O
D. 300 meters/second/second in the opposite
direction of travel

Answer 1

b or c

Explanation:

being that the answers are the same it should be 100 meters/second in the same direction. you will take the initial velocity, 1000, and subtract the new velocity, 500, and divide it by time. the direction deals with acceleration and if it is flying strait with no forces acting on it to move it, it will remain strait.
