20 (part 1 of 2)

The initial speed of a body is 6.61 m/s.
What is its speed after 3.92 s if it accelerates
uniformly at 3.46 m/s/s?
Answer in units of m/s

What is its speed after 3.92 s if it accelerates
uniformly at −3.46 m/s/s?
Answer in units of m/s
What is the answer for 21?

2 answers

Initial speed plus the acceleration times the time.

6.61 m/s + 3.46 m/s/s times 3.92 s
6.61 m/s + ____ m/s (fillin the blank with 3.46 times 3.92).

The same principle applies, but you will be multiplyint by -3.46 which will result in a decrease in the speed.
-6.95
