Answer:

a = 22.22 m/s^2

Explanation:

Equation to use:

[tex]v_{f} = v_{i} + at\\[/tex]

Knowns:

[tex]v_{f} = 1000m/s\\t = 45s[/tex]

Solving for:

[tex]a = ?[/tex]

Rearrange to solve for acceleration.

[tex]\frac{v_{f} -v_{i} }{t} = a[/tex]

Plug in known values and solve.

[tex]\frac{1000-0}{45} = a \\a = 22.22[/tex]

Don't forget the units.

a = 22.22m/s^2
