Question

An object moving with uniform acceleration has a velocity of (12.0 cm/s) in the positive x direction when its x coordinate is (3.00 cm). If its x coordinate (2.00 s) later is (-5.00 cm), what is the magnitude of its acceleration in ms²

Step 1

v_i = +12.0 cm/s = +0.120 m/s x_i = 3.00 cm = 0.0300 m x_f = -5.00 cm = -0.0500 m t = 2.00 s Show more…
