Tim is bummed that the internet connection on his jet is temporarily out of service. To pass time, he casually flips a coin straight upwards with a speed of 0.3 m/s and the coin lands back in his hand. It is safe to assume that the coin flipped location and its landing location are at the same height.

Questions:

1. Is the plan moving with constant velocity?
2. Now the jet accelerates. He flips the coin upwards with the same speed as before, but this time the coin passes 0.11 meter in front of his hand. In which direction did the jet accelerate?
3. Calculate the acceleration of the jet in terms on m/s/s
4. Express this acceleration in "g's." Give this value as positive.
5. Is there any significance to the fact that the velocity of the jet was not significant?

Please show step-by-step solution.
