Question

A runner travelling at a velocity of 2.5 m/s[S] accelerates at a constant rate to pass another
runner to win the race. She accelerates at a steady 1.5 m/s2
for 4.0 s and wins the race.
(a) How fast was she running at the end of the race?
V = Vo + a*t

Vo = 2.5 m/s.
a = 1.5 m/s^2
t = 4 s.
Solve for V(m/s).
