In physics, a deceleration (the slowing down of an object in motion) is considered a negative acceleration (in other words, the opposite of speeding up). If you crash a small toy car into a wall, and the acceleration of the car is -3 m/s2, what would be the total acceleration you would have applied to the car, if you repeated the crash eleven times?

Respuesta :

Using proportions, the total acceleration you would have applied to the car would be of -33 m/s².

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

For one crash, the acceleration is of -3 m/s². Hence, for 11 crashes, the total acceleration would be of:

a = -3 x 11 = -33 m/s².
