The velocity-time equation for a golf cart is $$ v_{\mathrm{f}}=(1 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s})+\left(-0.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\right) t $$ (a) What is the cart's initial velocity? (b) What is the cart's acceleration?
A car is coasting backwards downhill at a speed of $3.0 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ when the driver gets the engine started. After $2.5 \mathrm{s}$, the car is moving uphill at $4.5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. If uphill is chosen as the positive direction, what is the car's average acceleration?
