You can calculate acceleration with the following equation: Acceleration = (final velocity - starting velocity) ÷ time it takes to change velocity A plane passes over Centerville with a velocity of 6,000 m/s north. Fifty seconds later it passes over Middleton at a velocity of 11,000 m/s north. What is the plane's acceleration from Centerville to Middleton?

1000m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 6000m/s

Final velocity  = 11000m/s

Time  = 50s

Unknown:

Acceleration of the plane  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time:

    Acceleration = (final velocity - starting velocity) ÷ time

Therefore;

      Acceleration  =   = 1000m/s²
