A rabbit is moving in the negative x-direction at 2.70 m/s when it spots a predator and accelerates to a velocity of 10.9 m/s along the negative y-axis, all in 1.60 s. Determine the x-component and the y-component of the rabbit's acceleration. (Enter your answers in m/s2. Indicate the direction with the signs of your answers.) (a) x-component (m/s^2) (b) y-component (m/s^2)
