A motorcycle is going 30m/s. If the brakes are applied and the motorcycle's acceleration is -3.0 m/s^2, how far does the motorcycle go in 4.0 seconds?
A. 120m
117m
108m
96m
88m
OpenStudy (agent0smith):
\[\large x = v_i t + \frac{ 1 }{2 }at^2 \]
vi = 30
a=-3
t=4
x=?
OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):
30(4)+1/2(-3)(4)^2
= 96?
