Answer to Question #150752 in Physics for Kristine Aquino

Question

Derived the equation for velocity and acceleration given that position x = v⁰t + ½ at², where v⁰ and a are the initial velocity and constant acceleration, respectively at t= 4.0s
Find the following:
a. Position
b. Velocity
c. Acceleration

Answer 1

$a) x(4)=4v_0+0.5a\cdot4^2=4v_0+8a$

b) $v=v_0+at=v_0+4a$

c) there is not enough data to determine the acceleration
