Question
A particle has an acceleration of $+6.24 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ for $0.300 \mathrm{s}$. At the end of this time the particle's velocity is $+9.31 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. What was the particle's initial velocity?
Step 1
Step 1: We know that the final velocity (Vf) of an object can be calculated using the equation: \[ Vf = Vi + a*t \] where Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time. Show more…
