A record of travel along a straight path is as follows:
1. Start from rest with constant acceleration of 2.80
m/s2 for 11.0 s.
2. Maintain a constant velocity for the next 2.60 min.
3. Apply a constant negative acceleration of −9.46 m/s2
for 3.26 s.
(a) What was the total displacement for the trip?
(b) What were the average speeds for legs 1, 2, and 3 of the trip, as well as for the complete trip?
leg 1 | m/s |
leg 2 | m/s |
leg 3 | m/s |
complete trip | m/s |
