Askydiver jumps out of a plane and immediately begins falling toward the earth.
determine his average acceleration in meters per second-squared if he falls 100 m in a time of 6.2 seconds.
use 2 sig figs.
use a negative sign if needed.

5.2m/s^2

Explanation:

A body that moves with constant acceleration means that it moves in "a uniformly accelerated motion", which means that if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

When performing a mathematical demonstration, it is found that the equations that define this movement are as follows.

Where

Vf = final speed

Vo = Initial speed

T = time

A = acceleration

X = displacement

In conclusion to solve any problem related to a body that moves with constant acceleration we use the 4 above equations and use algebra to solve

for this case we can use the ecuation number 3

x=100m

t=6.2s

Vo=0m/s

explanation:

v=uf/(u-f)
