A car moving with an initial velocity of 32.1 m/s slows down at a constant rate of -1.9 m/s2. (a) What is its velocity after 2 seconds of deceleration? (b) What distance does the car cover in this time?
Added by Michelle A.
Step 1
Initial velocity, \( u = 32.1 \, \text{m/s} \) Acceleration, \( a = -1.9 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (negative because it is deceleration) Time, \( t = 2 \, \text{s} \) Show more…
