Question
a van travels a distance d=25.6m in the positive x direction in a time t1=23.7s, at which point it brakes coming to a rest in t2=8.33s
a. what was the van's avergae velocity in the horizontal direction in m/s during the t1 time period?
b.assuming the van started from rest and moved at a constant acceleration, what was the acceleration in m/s2 during the time interval t1?
c. what was the van's instantaneous velocity in the horizontal direction in ms when it was braking?
d. using the result from part c, what was the van's horizontal component of acceleration in m/s2 during the braking period?
