A rocket sled starts from rest and has a constant acceleration of 2.5 m/s? as it moves across a field. The rocket sled accelerates for a time of 30.0 seconds. The sled then experiences a constant acceleration of -0.65 m/s? until it comes to a stop. How far has the sled traveled from its starting position? Answer:
