Q

work out t when u= 25.0 m/s, v= 0m/s and a= -2.5m/s².
using the formula: a= v-u/t.
what does the minus Infront of the -2.5 signify?

A

a= v-u/t.
-2.5= 0-25/t.
t= -25/-2.5.
t=10s.

Q

work out a when u= 0.0m/s, v= 30m/s and s= 300m.
using the formula: v² -u² =2as.

A

v² -u² =2as.
v² -(35)² = 2(4)(300)
v²= 2(4)(300) + (35)²
v² = 3625.
v= √3625.
v= 60.2 m/s.
