An object is moving at 2.50 m/s [E]. At a time 3.00 seconds later the object is traveling at 1.50 m/s
1 answer:
Given parameters:
First velocity = 2.50m/s
Time of travel = 3s
Second velocity = 1.50m/s
Unknown:
The displacement during the first interval = ?
Velocity is the displacement of a body with time. Displacement is a distance move in a specific direction by a body.
Velocity =
So;
Displacement = Velocity x Time taken
Now input the parameter for the first velocity and time of travel;
Displacement = 2.5 x 3 = 7.5m
The displacement id 7.5m

Answer:
The car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.
Explanation:
In order to know if the car stops before the distance to the child, you take into account the following equation:
(1)
vo: initial speed of the car = 45km/h
a: deceleration of the car = 2 m/s^2
t: time
xo: initial distance to the child = 25m
x: final distance to the child = 0m
It is necessary that the solution of the equation (1) for time t are real.
You first convert the initial speed to m/s, then replace the values of the parameters and solve the quadratic polynomial for t:
You take the first value t1 because it has physical meaning.
The solution for t is real, then, the car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.
