    How to find the difference between two station?

    I know why I need to find Initial velocity, but why do I need to find final velocity?

    How to find the difference between two station?

    I believe the equation to find Initial velocity is, Vo = V - AT But I forgot what is V. From what I remember, I think V = Vf - Vo isn't it? So if I don't know neither Vo and Vf, how can I calculate V? And the equation for final velocity is (Vf)^2 = (Vo)^2 + 2aΔx.

    How to find the difference between two station?

    To find distance: Δx = V0Δt + .5a (Δt) 2 Δx =? V0 = 0 m/s Δt = 5 s A = 5.3 m/s 2 Δx = 0 m/s (5s) + .5 (-5.3 m/s 2) (5s) 2 Δx = 0 m + 2.65m/s 2 (25s 2) Δx = 0 m + 2.65m/s 2 (25s 2) Δx = 0 m + 66.25 m Δx = 66.25 m I use this method to find Vo, however, Vo comes out to be 0. Δx =...

    How to find the difference between two station?

    For the 1st part, I'm not really sure is it correct. The acceleration I plug in is -9.8 m/s ^ 2, but shouldn't it be -5.3m/s ^ 2? Also for the 1st part, the answer I got is negative. But is correct to have a negative height?

    How to find the difference between two station?

    Is this correct? 1s part Δx = V0Δt + .5a (Δt) 2 Δx =? V0 = 0 m/s Δt = 5 s A = 5.3 m/s 2 Δx = 0 m/s (5s) + .5 (-9.8m/s 2) (5s) 2 Δx = 122.5 2nd part Δx = V0Δt + .5a (Δt) 2 Δx =122.5 V0 =? Δt = 64 s A = 5.3 m/s 2 Δx = V0Δt + .5a (Δt) 2 122.5 m= VO (64s) + .5 (-9.8 m/s 2)...

    I'm not really good with graph lol.. I know using graph is easier to find answer, but my teacher insist to use equation.

    How to find the difference between two station?

    For the three version you mentioned, are the following the right approaches? If this is the right way, how do I find Vo Δx = V0Δt + .5a(Δt)2 Δx =? V0 = Δt = 5 s A = 5.3 m/s 2 Same thing, if this is the right approach, how do I find Vo Δx = V0Δt + .5a(Δt)2 Δx =? V0 =? Δt = 64 s A = 5.3 m/s 2...

    How to find the difference between two station?

    Homework Statement A train left the station by accelerating at 5.3 m/s 2 for 5 seconds. It then continued at constant speed for 64 seconds. As it approached the next station, it slowed to a stop at 4.2 m/s 2. What is the distance between the 2 stations? Homework Equations Δx = V0Δt...

    Question relates to Degree and some other simple question.

    1. Marcia was driving her car at the constant speed of 19.2 m/s when she saw the light turn red. It took her .13 sec to hit the brakes, but then the car slowed at the constant rate of 6.2 m/s2 until it stopped. How much time did it take for the car to stop moving after the light turned red.? How...
