2) rocket powered sleds are used to test the responses of himans to acceleration. Starting from rest, one sled can reach a speed of 444m/s in 1.80s and can be brought to a stop again in 2.15s.

a) calculate the acceleration of the sled when starting and compare it to the acceleration due to gravity, 9.80m/s^2.

b) Find the acceleration of the sledwhen braking and compare it to the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.
