A car starts from rest and travels for 5.3 s with a uniform acceleration of +1.2 m/s2. The driver then applies the brakes, causing a uniform acceleration of -2.3 m/s2. The breaks are applied for 1.60 s.
How fast is the car going at the end of the braking period?
How far has the car gone from its start?
