A car is traveling at 20.0 m/s when the driver slams on the brakes and
brings it to a straight-line stop in 4.2 s. What is the magnitude of its
average acceleration?

initial velocity, u = 20m/s
final velocity,v = 0m/s
time,t= 4.2 sec
we know that
v = u + at
0= 20+a*4.2
a = -20/4.2
a = - 10/2.1 = - 4.76 ms-2 ans

a = v/t = -20/4.2 = -4.76 is the right answer

i took it minus only
