A keen physics student starts running at 3.4 m/s and accelerates at 0.55 for 3.7 s. What is the final velocity of the keen physics student?

Sure, I can help you with that. To find the final velocity of the keen physics student, you need to use the formula for final velocity under constant acceleration:


$$v = u + at$$

where:

-
$v$ is the final velocity

-
$u$ is the initial velocity

-
$a$ is the acceleration

-
$t$ is the time

Plugging in the given values, we get:


$$v = 3.4 + 0.55 * 3.7$$


$$v = 5.435$$

Therefore, the final velocity of the keen physics student is 5.435 m/s I hope this helps!
