While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 32 m/s and comes to a stop with an acceleration of -6 m/s2. How long did it take the skateboarder to reach its final velocity?

Respuesta :

Answer: 6s

Explanation:

Vs=32m/s  speed at beginning of slowing down

Vf=0m/s     stop speed

a= -6 m/s²  acceleration

----------------

Use equation for acceleration :

a=(Vf-Vs)/t

a*t=Vf-Vs

t=(Vf-Vs)/a

t=(0-36)/-6

t=-36/-6

t=6 s
