The correct answer is c) 28 m/s.
Let's find the step-by-step solution. The motion of the monkey is an uniformly accelerated motion, with acceleration equal to
. The initial velocity of the monkey is zero, while the distance covered is S=40 m. Therefore, we can use the following relationship to find vf, the final velocity of the monkey:
from which

Answer:
Answer D : about 1067 meters
Explanation:
There are two steps to this problem:
1) First find the time it takes the plane to stop using the equation for the acceleration:
Where Vf is the final velocity of the plane (in our case: zero )
Vi is the initial velocity of the plane (in our case: 80 m/s)
is the acceleration (in our case -3 m/s^2 - notice negative value because the velocity is decreasing)
with units corresponding to seconds given the quantities involved in the calculation.
2) Second knowing the time it took the plane to stop, now use that time in the equation for the distance traveled under accelerated motion:
Where the answer results in units of meters given the quantities used in the calculation.
We round this to 1067 meters
