Vocaloid:
a) avg speed = distance/time = ?
zarkam21:
oh shoot i divided wrong
zarkam21:
4.13m/s
Vocaloid:
good
b) acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity)/time

(5.3-4)/2=0.65
Vocaloid:
good, units are m/s/s as usual
Vocaloid:
anyway, for c) use equation 3: delta(x) = + v_o * t + (1/2)at^2
zarkam21:
this would be the same riggt
zarkam21:
okay

zarkam21:
so
zarkam21:
delta(x) = + 13* 21.1+ (1/2)(9.8)(12.1)^2
Vocaloid:
you are solving for a (we don't use gravity here since the object is only moving horizontally)
zarkam21:
it meant 12.1
Vocaloid:
delta(x) is distance which is already given

zarkam21:
yeah that's what i thought
zarkam21:
8 =13* 12.1+ (1/2)(a)(12.1)^2
Vocaloid:
god i'm an idiot that's the wrong equation since you aren't given time
Vocaloid:
v^2 = v_o^2 + 2a(deltax) sorry
zarkam21:
so 4

so 4
zarkam21:
okay
zarkam21:
0=13+2(a)(x)
zarkam21:
well 13^2
Vocaloid:
good, don't forget to plug in delta x and solve for (a)

-13/16
zarkam21:
-0.81
zarkam21:
0=13+2(a)(8)
zarkam21:
i did this equation with x as the distance given which is 8
Vocaloid:
needs to be 13^2
0=13^2+2(a)(8)

oh ugghh
zarkam21:
-10.56
Vocaloid:
good units are m/s/s as usual
acceleration is negative since he's slowing down
zarkam21:
thanks I'm starting to get better at it now !
