A roller coaster accelerated from rest to 55 m/s by the time it reached the first hill. The roller coaster took 15 seconds to climb to the top of the hill. What was the acceleration of the coaster?

Respuesta :

Answer:

I believe the acceleration is 3.66666666667 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Acceleration formula: a = vf - vi / t

Initial velocity: 0 (I believe it was 0, as it wasn't moving in the beginning)

Final velocity: 55 m/s

Time: 15 s

Substituting values: 3.66666666667 = 55 - 0 / 15
