Question

10. A boat traveling at 9.5 m/s reduces its acceleration at a rate of 2.5 m/s2. What is the final speed of the boat

after it travels 12 meters?

Answer 1

6.75m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

using the second equation of motion, the time is calculated.

and with the formula a= (v - u)/t

where a is acceleration but in this case it's deceleration (and should be negated as you solve it ) .

v is final velocity

u is initial velocity

t is time taken
