Question

A person pushing a stroller starts from rest, uniformly accelerating at a rate of 0.500 m/s2. What is the velocity

of the stroller after it has traveled 6.32 m?

Answer 1

You're going to use the constant acceleration motion equation for velocity and displacement:

(V)final² = (V)initial²+2a(dx)

Given:

a=0.500m/s²

dx=6.32 m

(V)intial=0m

(V)final= UNKNOWN

(V)final= 2.51396m/s
