Question

The infamous chicken is dashing toward home plate with a speed of 5.6 m/s when he decides to hit the dirt. The chicken slides for 1.2s, just reaching the plate as he stops. The magnitude of acceleration of 4.7 m/s^2. How far did the chicken slide? x=?

Answer 1

s = 3.36 m

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

initial velocity of the chicken = 5.6 m/s

chicken slide for = 1.2 s

final velocity of chicken = 0 m/s

acceleration magnitude = 4.7 m/s²

distance chicken slides = ?

`s = ut +(1)/(2)at^2`

`s = 5.6* 1.2 +(1)/(2)(-4.7)1.2^2`

s = 3.36 m

so, the chicken will slide up to 3.36 m
