Motion w/ Constant Acceleration?

Landing with a speed of 81.9 m/s, and traveling due south, a jet comes to rest in 949 m. Assuming the jet slows with constant acceleration, find the magnitude and direction of its acceleration.Please help me, 10 pts to best answer.

The equation to use:V² = U² + 2*a*s0 = 81.9² +2*949*a0 = 6,707.61 + 1898a a = -6707.61/1898a = -3.53The acceleration is 3.53m/s² and the negative sign indicates that it is to the north ( opposite of south, which we took as positive)... Show More
vf squared = vi squared + (a * distance)* vf is 0 – the plane has come to rest0 = 81.9^2 + (a * 949) 0 = 6707.61 + 949a– 6707.61 = 949aa = – 7.07 m/ s^-2a = 7.07 m/s^-2 , north... Show More
d = 0.5 at^2 + Vo*tVo = 0 second term drops outv = at81.9 =ata = 81.9/t949 = 0.5 * 81.9 /t * t^2949 = 81.9 tt= 11.59 a = 81.9/11.59a =7.07 m/s^2... Show More
