Answer:
Acceleration, \(a=9.4\ m/s^2\)
Explanation:
It is given that,
Initial speed of the pumpkin, u = 0
Final speed of the pumpkin, v = 47 m/s
Time taken, t = 5 seconds
Acceleration of an object is given by :
\(a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\)
\(a=\dfrac{47\ m/s}{5\ s}\)
\(a=9.4\ m/s^2\)
So, the acceleration of the pumpkin is \(9.4\ m/s^2\). Hence, this is the required solution.
