Acyclist is riding his bike up a mountain trail. when he starts up the trail , he is going 8 m/s. as the trail gets steeper, he slows to 3 m/s in 1 minute. what is the cyclist's acceleration?

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

Our cyclist's change in speed = (3 m/s) - (8 m/s) = -5 m/s

Acceleration = (-5 m/s) / (60 seconds)

Acceleration = -1/12 m/s²

multiple allele inheritance is traits controlled by more than 2 alleles (ex: pigeons having 3 alleles of one gene govern their feather color).
