Ah hah ! That description fits things like mass, linear momentum,
energy, angular momentum, electric charge, and politicians. They
never appear or disappear, they just move from place to place.
We say that those quantities are conserved.

A horse running at 3 m/s speeds up with a constant acceleration of 5 m/s2. How fast is the

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The horse is going at 12.72 m/s speed.

Explanation:

The initial speed of the horse (u) = 3 m/s

The acceleration of the horse (a)= 5 m/ $s^{2}$

The displacement( it is assumed it is moving in a straight line)(s)= 15.3 m

Applying the second equation of motion to find out the time,

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

$15.3=3t+2.5t^{2}$

$2.5t^{2}+3t-15.3=0$

Solving this quadratic equation, we get time(t)=1.945 s, the other negative time is neglected.

Now applying first equation of motion, to find out the final velocity,

$v=u+at$

$v=3+1.945*5$

$v=3+9.72$

v=12.72 m/s

The horse travels at a speed of 12.72 m/s after covering the given distance.
