A car with a velocity of 22 m/s is accelerated uniformly at the rate of 2 m/s2 for 7s. What is its final velocity?

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a classic acceleration problem in one dimension. Use the equation

[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}[/tex] where a is the acceleration of he car, vf is the final velocity (and our unknown), v0 is the initial velocity, and t is time in seconds. Filling in:

[tex]2=\frac{v_f-22}{7}[/tex] and

14 = vf - 22 and

36 = vf (not quite right with the sig dig's but I'm guessing you're not really into the specifics much, judging by the acceleration and the time values)
