Answer:
See the answers below.
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.
where:
Vf = final velocity = 10 [m/s]
Vo = initial velocity = 40 [m/s]
t = time = 5 [s]
a = acceleration [m/s²]
Now replacing:
Note: The negative sign in the above equation means that the velecity is decreasing.
2)
To solve this second part we must use the following equation of kinematics.
where:
x = distance [m]
