The Problem at hand
You are stopped at a stop sign, not a very hard
concept to understand. You speed up to 3.5m/s2
from the stop sign. How far will you travel when
it is going 25m/s.
3
The Equation
V2Vo22a(d-do)
4
Known
Do0.0m
Vo0.0m/s
V25m/s
a3.5m/s2
5
V2Vo22a(d-do)
Solve for d ddo(v2-vo2)/(2a)
Substitute d0.0m/s(25m/s)2-(0.0m/s)2/(23.5m/
s2)
