I NEED HELP ASAP!! PLEASE A skydiver falling towards Earth and is traveling at 19 m/s opens her parachute. She slows to a speed of 3 m/s The whole process takes only 2 seconds . What is her acceleration ? Explain why this acceleration is positive or negative

Acceleration = -3m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 19m/s

Final velocity = 3m/s

Time = 2secs

To find the acceleration;

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time. Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Acceleration = -3m/s²

The value for her acceleration is negative because she is decelerating i.e her final velocity is lower than her initial velocity.

layers of the earth affect the waves and these effects are seen on instruiments such as seimometers
