I don't know how to solve for this. I ended up in this class accidently and never took physics. If you can't give me the answer please point me in the right direction/formula.

Hello SDS

You could look in the formulas for uniform acceleration (deceleration in this case)...

Let me guess: You wanted to study 'Psychics' but signed up for 'Physics' instead.

I bet if you ask your classmates, you'll probably find that some (or most) of them never studied physics before, either. Still, if you're not going to drop the class after realizing your mistake, you should at least make an effort to read and study the material.

For future reference, "I don't know how to solve this" is an insufficient reason for getting HW help at PF.
