We use the formula:
a = (v^2 - u^2)/2sÂ
a = acceleration = ?Â
v = final velocity = 2.5x10^6Â
u = initial Velocity = 1x10^5Â
s = distance traveled. = 0.012mÂ
To find the acceleration, we need to fill in the variables:Â
a = ((2.5x10^6)^2 - (1x10^5)^2)/ 2* 0.012 = 260,000,000,000,000Â m/s^2
Our acceleration is 2.6 × 10^14 m/s^2Â
