Answer:
2 m/s²
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 12 m/s
Time (t) = 6 s
Acceleration (a) =?
The acceleration of the player can be obtained as follow:
v = u + at
12 = 0 + (a × 6)
12 = 6a
Divide both side by 6
a = 12 / 6
a = 2 m/s²
Thus, the acceleration of the player is 2 m/s²
