An object is moving east, and its velocity changes from 66 mvs to 26 mvs in 10 seconds. Which describes the acceleration?
negative acceleration of 4 mvs
positive acceleration of 4 ms
positive acceleration of 9 m/a
negatlveo acceleration of 9 m/s

negative acceleration of 4m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 66m/s

Final velocity = 26m/s

Time taken = 10s

Unknown:

Description of the acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

    acceleration  =

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

  Now insert the parameters and solve;

    Acceleration  =   = -4m/s²

So, we see a negative acceleration of 4m/s²
