Question

A person pushing a stroller starts from rest, uniformly accelerating at a rate of 0.5 m/s^2. What is the velocity of the stroller after it has traveled 4.75m?

State the given and steps to the solution

Answer 1

u =0m/sec

acceleration = 5 m/s ^2

s = 4.75m

by using the third equation of motion

v^2 - u.^2 = 2as

v^2 - 0 = 2 * 0.5 * 4.75

so v^2 = 4.75

so v = 2.17m/sec

this is the answer
