Answer:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) extinguishers contain a mixture of liquid and gaseous carbon dioxide (a nonflammable gas). CO2 is normally a gas at room temperature and pressure. It has to be stored under high pressure to make it a liquid. When you release the pressure, the gas expands enormously and makes a huge white jet.

Rasek [7]

Answer:

84 meters

Explanation:

Using these two kinematic equations : Vf= Vi +at and

D= [(Vi+Vf)/2]*t

Plugging in what we know into the first equation to solve for the Final velocity, you'll get Vf= 2 m/s + 4(m/s^2)*6s = 26m/s

plug time vi and vf into the second equation to solve for displacement.
