A galloping horse has a speed of 12 m/s at t = 0. After 50 s its speed is 8 m/s.
Draw a Velocity-Time graph on your own paper to represent the motion of the horse and use the graph to answer the following two questions. Assume that the acceleration of the horse is uniform.
Use your graph to calculate the average acceleration of the horse.

Select one of the following:

  • – 0.24 m/s^2

  • – 0.08 m/s^2

  • + 0.08 m/s^2

  • + 0.24 m/s^2
