A particle travels horizontally between two
parallel walls separated by 18.4 m. It moves
toward the opposing wall at a constant rate
of 6.7 m/s. Also, it has an acceleration in the
direction parallel to the walls of 1.7 m/s2 .

What will be its speed when it hits the
opposing wall?
Answer in units of m/s.
