Question

A bus as speed of 20m/s begin to slow at constant acceleration of 8.00m/s2 along a straight line find the average speed for the 5al.s interv

Answer 1

-20 m/s.

Explanation:

The computation of the average speed is shown below:

Given that

The initial velocity of the bus, u = 20 m/s

Aceleration of the bus, -a = 8 m/s²

time of motion, t = 5 s

Now The final velocity of the bus is

v = u + at

v = 20 + (-8 × 5)

v = 20 - 40

v = -20 m/s.
