<span>The current is 6 miles per hour.
Let's create a few equations:
Traveling with the current:
(18 + c)*t = 16
Traveling against the current:
(18 - c)*t = 8
Let's multiply the 2nd equation by 2
(18 - c)*t*2 = 16
Now subtract the 1st equation from the equation we just doubled.
(18 - c)*t*2 = 16
(18 + c)*t = 16
(18 - c)*t*2 - (18 + c)*t = 0
Divide both sides by t
(18 - c)*2 - (18 + c) = 0
Now solve for c
(18 - c)*2 - (18 + c) = 0
36 - 2c - 18 - c = 0
36 - 2c - 18 - c = 0
18 - 3c = 0
18 = 3c
6 = c
So the current is 6 mph.
Let's verify that.
(18 + 6)*t = 16
24*t = 16
t = 16/24 = 2/3
(18 - 6)*t = 8
12*t = 8
t = 8/12 = 2/3
And it's verified.</span>
Answer:
F=ma
therefore A=F/M

i think that's what your doing but I'm not sure
Answer:
It takes her 3.409 seconds to make a full stop.
Explanation:
The time it takes to make a full stop can be determined by the equation of velocity for a Uniformly Accelerated Rectilinear Motion:
(1)
Where
is the final velocity,
is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.
Equation (1) can be rewritten in terms of t:
(2)
For this particular case the final velocity will be equal to zero (
):

So it takes her 3.409 seconds to make a full stop.
