Number 5 The USS Enterprise accelerates from rest at 100,000m/s2 for a time of four seconds. How far did the ship travel in that time?
5. The USS Enterprise accelerates from rest at 100,000 m/s for a time of four
seconds. How far did the ship travel in that time?
a = 100 000
t= 4
vf =
d = vt + % a t = 04+.5*100 000*4*4 = 800 000 m
vi = 0
d = ????
6. A skier traveling at 5 m/s accelerates down a hill at 1 m/s for 3 seconds. What is
the final velocity of the skier and how far down the hill has the skier traveled in
this time?
a 1
V = at +v, = 1* 3 +5 = 8 m/s
t= 3
vf = ????
vi = 5
d = vt + a t = 5*3 +.5*1*3*3 = 19.5 m
d= ???
