    How Does the Speedometer Reading Change as an Object Falls?

    should it be 9.8 x 2 = 19.6m/s at 2 second?

    How Does the Speedometer Reading Change as an Object Falls?

    how will i know the velocity change every second when i can't solve that because it doesn't tell time. It tells me to answer with words and that its not a math problem.

    How Does the Speedometer Reading Change as an Object Falls?

    vf = vo + at ? and the teacher said for free fall it's vf = gt

    How Does the Speedometer Reading Change as an Object Falls?

    that no matter what time or how long it stays at g = 9.8 m/s

    How Does the Speedometer Reading Change as an Object Falls?

    Let's say a rock had a speedometer on it so that you could measure how fast it was going at any moment. By how much would the speed reading on the speedometer increase with each second that it fell? what is your answer to this question? can you explain? i also learned today that g = 9.8...

    What Formula Calculates Stopping Distance with Negative Acceleration?

    because it's like this d= 11.18^2 / 2 * -3 = 125 / -6 = -20.83 how can it not be negative?

    What Formula Calculates Stopping Distance with Negative Acceleration?

    d = 125 / 2 * -3 d = 125 / -6 d = -20.83 is this right?

    What Formula Calculates Stopping Distance with Negative Acceleration?

    at the end i got d = -9 / 2a what do i do after this? -9a / 2a = -9 / 2 d = -4.5 is that right?

    What Formula Calculates Stopping Distance with Negative Acceleration?

    how is vf 0 when it only tells me meters per second is 11.18 and acceleration -3m/s?

    What Formula Calculates Stopping Distance with Negative Acceleration?

    nvm this is what i got... vf^2 = 2ad 127/2a = d after that? 127a/2a = 127 / 2 = 63.5?

    What Formula Calculates Stopping Distance with Negative Acceleration?

    using the 3rd formula i got.. vf^2 = 125 + 2ad /2a both side vf^2 / 2a = d and then what else do i do? and is this right?

    What Formula Calculates Stopping Distance with Negative Acceleration?

    the 11.18 is the vi. How can i do this problem can you show me step to step? i have like 10 of these and hope to see how to do this one first.

    What Formula Calculates Stopping Distance with Negative Acceleration?

    Acceleration = -3m/s^2 Meters per second = 11.18 if i were to find the stopping distance what formula should i use? Vo + at = Vf d = Vo x t + 1/2 x at^2 Vf^2 = Vo^2 + 2ad
