A jet starts at rest at the end of a runway and reaches a speed of 80 m/s in 20 s. What is its acceleration?

Formula Used : a = (v-u)/t

Here, we have u = 0 m/s, v = 80 m/s t = 20 s

So,             a = (80-0)/20

                  a = 80/20

                  a = 4 m/s^2

 

Thus, jet's acceleration is 4 m/s^2.
