Answer:
[tex]a = -1.33 m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
As we know that acceleration is rate of change in velocity
So here we have
[tex]a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}[/tex]
so we will have
[tex]v_f = 5 m/s[/tex]
[tex]v_i = 15 m/s[/tex]
t = 7.5 s
now we have
[tex]a = \frac{5 - 15}{7.5}[/tex]
[tex]a = -1.33 m/s^2[/tex]
