Keiko is riding a skateboard 2 m/s, west. How long will it take her to reach a velocity of 8 m/s, west if her acceleration is 2 m/s*2?
3 seconds
10 seconds
8 seconds
6 seconds
Please hurry
8 seconds
I hurried,and I got 3 not 8
To find the time it will take Keiko to reach a velocity of 8 m/s, west, we can use the equation:
v = u + at
Where:
v = final velocity (8 m/s)
u = initial velocity (2 m/s)
a = acceleration (2 m/s^2)
t = time
Rearranging the equation to solve for time:
t = (v - u) / a
Substituting the given values:
t = (8 m/s - 2 m/s) / 2 m/s^2
t = 6 m/s / 2 m/s^2
t = 3 seconds
Therefore, it will take Keiko 3 seconds to reach a velocity of 8 m/s, west.
v = Vi + a t
8 = 2 + 2 t
6 = 2 t
t = 3
