An object moves in one dimensional motion with constant acceleration a = 7.4 m/s². At
time t = 0 s, the object is at x = 3.2 m and has an initial velocity of vo = 4 m/s.
How far will the object move before it achieves a velocity of v = 6.6 m/s?
Your answer should be accurate to the nearest 0.1 m.
An object has a velocity of (5.4 m/s)i -(4.8 m/s)j. Over a period of 1.3 s, its velocity changes to (1.7 m/s)i + (5.9 m/s)j. What is its acceleration?
Group of answer choices
a) -(3.7 m/s)i +(11 m/s)j
b) -(2.8 m/s)i+(8.2 m/s)j
c) (3.7 m/s)i+(11m/s)j
d) (2.8 m/s)i+(8.2 m/s)j
