Answer:

a.After
15 second Mr Comer's speed
=
1.7 m/s

b.Distance travelled by Mr.Comer in
15 seconds
=
18.75\ m

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Lets recall our first equation of motion
V_(f) =V_(i) + at

Now we know that
V_(i) = 0.8m/s ,
a = 0.06\ m/s^2 and


t = 15 \ sec

Plugging the values we have.


V_(f) =V_(i) + at


V_(f) =0.8 + 0.06 * 15


V_(f) =0.8+ 0.9


V_(f) =1.7 m/s

Then Mr.Comer's speed after
15 sec
=
1.7ms^-1

b.

Lets find the distance and recall our third equation of motion.


V_(f) ^2-V{i}^2 = 2as

So
s = distance covered.

Dividing both sides with 2a we have.


\frac{V_(f) ^2-V{i}^2}{2a} = 2as

Plugging the values.


((1.7)^2-(0.8)^2)/(2*0.06) = 2as


s= 18.75\ m

So Mr.Comer will travel a distance of
s= 18.75\ m.
