*ONLY ANSWER PART C & D*
Part A.) What is the final velocity, in meters per second, of a freight train that accelerates at a rate of 0.095 m/s2 for 8.75 min, starting with an initial velocity of 3.8 m/s?
Part B.) If the train can slow down at a rate of 0.575 m/s2, how long, in seconds, does it take to come to a stop from this velocity?
Part C.) How far, in meters, does the train travel during the process described in part (A)?
Part D.) How far, in meters, does the train travel during the process described in part (B)?

When you leave the sandy patch your speed has been reduced by 3.8m/s to 5.8 m/s. a. Assuming the sand causes a constant acceleration, what was the bicycle’s acceleration in the sandy patch? Give both the magnitude and direction. b. How long did it take to cross the sandy patch? c. Suppose you enter the sandy patch with a speed of only 7.6 m/s. Is your final speed in this case 3.4m/s, more than 3.4m/s, or less than 3.4 m/s? Explain.arrow_forward
