A car is travelling west at 22.2 m/s when it accelerated for 0.80 s to the west at 2.68 m/s2. Calculate the car's final velocity. Show all your work.

24.34 m/s

Explanation:

recall that one of the equations of motions takes the form:

v = u + at

where,

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity (given as 22.2 m/s)

a = acceleration (given as 2.68m/s²)

t = time elapsed during acceleration (given as 0.80s)

since we are told that the the acceleration is in the direction of the intial velocity, we can simply substitute the known values into the equation above:

v = u + at

v = 22.2 + (2.68) (0.8)

v = 24.34 m/s

a small object of mass 3.66 g and charge -17.6 µc is suspended motionless above the ground when immersed in a uniform electric field perpendicular to the ground. what are the magnitude and direction of the electric field?
