I need help figuring this out:
A certain elevator cab in a New York hotel has a total run of 160 m. Its maximum speed is 296 m/min. Its acceleration (both speeding up and slowing down) has a magnitude of 1.40 m/s2.
How far does the cab move while accelerating to full speed from rest?

anonymous · Answer

T=(296-160)/1.4
X=V*T+.5*A*T^2
FINALLY
X=22136.8
