Solution Summary

For given position data for a uniform accelerating motion on a straight line path, acceleration is estimated.

Solution Preview

For time difference, t1 = 41.40 - 40.40 = 1 sec
displacement (s1) = 13.050 - 8.000 = 5.050 m

For time difference, t2 = 42.00 - 41.40 = 0.20 sec
displacement (s2) = 21.000 - 13.050 = 7.950 m
