Experts in model airplanes develop a supersonic plane to scale, it moves horizontally in the air while it is conducting a flight test. The development team defines that the space that the airplane travels as a function of time is given by the function: e (t) = 9t 2 - 6t + 3 Determine what acceleration the scale airplane has (Second derivative).

Step-by-step explanation:

e(t) = 9t² − 6t + 3

The velocity is the first derivative:

e'(t) = 18t − 6

The acceleration is the second derivative:

e"(t) = 18
