Answer:

<em>The initial speed of the sprinter was 2.2 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

The following relation applies:

v_f=v_o+at

Where a is the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time.

The sprinter speeds up from an unknown initial speed to vf=3 m/s in t=2 seconds with an acceleration of a=0.4~m/s^2.

To find the initial speed, we solve the equation for vo:

v_o=v_f-at

Substituting the values:

v_o=3-0.4*2

v_o=3-0.8

v_o=2.2~m/s

The initial speed of the sprinter was 2.2 m/s
