Give u = start velocity

v = end velocity

v = u + at

50 = 400 + a*30

30a = -350

a = -116.67 m/ $s^{2}$

**Why the accecleration is negative number**

Because displacement, velocity, and acceleration are VECTOR QUANTITIES.

Vector Quantity must have direction.

<span>Condensation is the change of the substance from liquid to solid phase. Example of this is the formation of ice. Vaporization is the change of substance from liquid to gas phase. Example of this is the boiling of water. Deposition is the change of a substance from gas to solid phase. Example of this is the formation of ice on a winter day. Sublimation is the change of a substance from solid to gas phase. Example of this is dry ice. The answer is letter C.</span>

Answer:

$v_f=8.17\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

First, we calculate the work done by this force after the box traveled 14 m, which is given by:

$W=\int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} {F(x)} \, dx \\W=\int\limits^{14}_{0} ({18N-0.530\frac{N}{m}x}) \, dx\\W=[(18N)x-(0.530\frac{N}{m})\frac{x^2}{2}]^{14}_{0}\\W=(18N)14m-(0.530\frac{N}{m})\frac{(14m)^2}{2}-(18N)0+(0.530\frac{N}{m})\frac{0^2}{2}\\W=252N\cdot m-52N\cdot m\\W=200N\cdot m$

Since we have a frictionless surface, according to the the work–energy principle, the work done by all forces acting on a particle equals the change in the kinetic energy of the particle, that is:

$W=\Delta K\\W=K_f-K_i\\W=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_i^2}{2}$
