Which of the following is a unit for acceleration?

A plane lands on the runway and slows from 210.6 m/s to 8.33 m/s in 46.8 s. What is the plane's acceleration in m/s²?

Calculate the final velocity of a rocket that travels for 4 seconds, has an initial velocity of 12 km/s, and an acceleration of 2 km/s².

A golf ball accelerates off a tee at 15m/s², changing its velocity from 0m/s to 50 m/s down the fairway. How long did it take the golf ball to accelerate?

A golf ball is thrown downward from the roof of the Sears Tower (442 m above street level). Neglecting air resistance, it accelerates at 9.8 m/s² and lands on the pavement after 9.2 s with a final speed of 93.0 m/s. What was the ball's initial speed?

Which of the following is not accelerating?
- a ball being juggled
- a woman walking at 2.5 m/s along a straight road
- a satellite circling Earth
- a braking cyclist

The light turns red, and you ease to a halt. Checking your stopwatch, you see that you stopped in 4.5 seconds. Your acceleration was 0.34 m/s² in a direction opposite to your original velocity. What was your original speed?
