Answer
$0.006111$ $m/s^2$
Work Step by Step
At time $t = 9$ min, the velocity is $2.2$ $m/s$. At time $t = 3$ min, the velocity is $0$ $m/s$. Thus, the change in velocity over the time interval is $2.2$ $m/s$ - $0$ $m/s$ = $2.2$ $m/s$.
The change in time is 9 min - 3 min = 6 min = 360 s.
Thus, the average acceleration is given by $a_{avg} = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$.
Thus, $a_{avg}$ = $2.2$ m/s / $360$ s = $0.006111$ $m/s^2$.
