Question
  1. A car starts from rest, then accelerates at a constant rate over a distance of 66 m. It then immediately decelerates at a constant rate over a distance of 111 m. The entire trip lasts a total duration of 14.2 s. What were the magnitudes of the car s accelerations for the speedup and slowdown stages respectively?
       
    7.82 m/s^2, then 4.65 m/s^2
       
    4.71 m/s^2, then 2.80 m/s^2
       
    4.65 m/s^2, then 7.82 m/s^2
       
    1.76 m/s^2, then 1.76 m/s^2
