Question
The distance record for someone riding a motorcycle on its rear wheel without stopping is more than 320000 m. Suppose the rider in this unusual situation travels with an initial speed of 8.00 m/s before speeding up. The rider then travels 40.0 m at a constant acceleration of 2.00 m/s2. What is the rider’s speed after the acceleration?

Answer:
v = 15.0 m/s
Explanation:
This is an exercise in kinematics in one dimension
v² = v₀² + 2 a x
in the exercise indicate that the initial velocity v₀ = 8.00 m / s
the distance traveled during acceleration is x = 40.0 m
let’s calculate
v² = 8² + 2 2 40
v = √ 224
v = 14.97 m / s
v = 15.0 m/s
