An Amazon delivery box slides across the floor of the delivery truck and accelerates from 6 m/s to 20 m/s in 1.3 seconds. What is the acceleration of the box? (NOTE: Only 1 point if no work is shown)

Answer 1

The acceleration of the box can be calculated using the formula:

Acceleration = (Final velocity - Initial velocity) / time

Acceleration = (20 m/s - 6 m/s) / 1.3 s

Acceleration = 14 m/s / 1.3 s

Acceleration ≈ 10.77 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the box is approximately 10.77 m/s².
