Skateboarder traveling at 7.0 m/s rose at a top of a ramp and 3.0 seconds. What is the skateboarders acceleration?
To find the skateboarder's acceleration, we need to determine the change in velocity over the given time interval.
Initial velocity, u = 0 (assuming the skateboarder started from rest at the bottom of the ramp)
Final velocity, v = 7.0 m/s (velocity at the top of the ramp)
Time, t = 3.0 seconds
Acceleration, a = (v - u) / t
= (7.0 - 0) / 3.0
= 7.0 / 3.0
≈ 2.33 m/s²
Therefore, the skateboarder's acceleration is approximately 2.33 m/s².
