Okay, the second equation is v2 = 88/(10.97 - t1), which I had no trouble getting to. The fact that you helped make the first equation made it click for me.
I might as well solve the problem here, if other people need it.
Since vt = 24, we can isolate for v. Which means v = 24/t. Then we take...
Homework Statement
A 50kg sprinter ran a 100m dash in 10.97s. This sprinter set the record for the 100m dash at normal altitudes. Assume that she accelerated uniformly for the first 12.0m and then traveled at a constant velocity to the finish line. Homework Equations
