Answer:
(A) 1.43secs
(B) -2.50m/s^2
Explanation:
A commuter backs her car out of her garage with an acceleration of 1.40m/s^2
(A) When the speed is 2.00m/s then, the time can be calculated as follows
t= Vf-Vo/a
The values given are a= 1.40m/s^2 , Vf= 2.00m/s, Vo= 0
= 2.00-0/1.40
= 2.00/1.40
= 1.43secs
(B) The deceleration when the time is 0.800secs can be calculated as follows
a= Vf-Vo/t
= 0-2.00/0.800
= -2.00/0.800
= -2.50m/s^2
