Answer:
-2.33 m/s²
Explanation:
The computation of the skateboarder’s acceleration is shown below;
Acceleration means the change in velocity per unit with respect to time.
In the given case, the initial velocity is 7 m/s.
As in the question it is mentioned that it comes to a stop, so the final velocity would be zero.
And, The time elapsed is 3 seconds.
Now the following equation should be used
a = (v,final - v,initial) ÷ t
= (0 - 7)/3
= -2.33 m/s²
