Question

A car accelerates at 4 m/s²for 3 seconds. The direction of its acceleration is due west. If its initial velocity was 45 m/s, due east, and its initial position is zero, what is its final position? Round your answer to the nearest meter. Choose positive direction east.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given data:

Acceleration (a) = -4 m/s²

Time (t) = 3 s

Initial velocity (u) = +45 m/s

Initial position (x_i) = 0 m

Required:

The final position (x_f)
