I see what you mean. I remember thinking about the acceleration when I first started, but I guess I forgot. :redface:
If I calculated the acceleration using x=x0 + v0t + 1 / 2at2:
a = 2x / t2 = 2(0.0578) / (0.4)2 = 0.7225 m / s2
Is this correct?
From here, how would I find the...
Homework Statement
A physics student playing with an air hockey table (a frictionless surface) finds that if she gives the puck a velocity of 5.70 m/s along the length (2.28 m) of the table at one end, by the time it has reached the other end the puck has drifted 5.78 cm to the right but...
