A girl rolls a basketball across a basketball court. The ball slowly decelerates at a rate of -0.20m/s^2. If the initial velocity was 2.0m/s and the ball rolled to a stop at 5.0sec after. 12:00, at what time did she start the ball rolling?

By equation of motion :

Now, it is given that it stops after 5 seconds of motion and time at that point is 12:00.

So, time when it started is 11 : 59 : 55.

Therefore, distance travelled is 10 m.

Hence, this is the required solution.

i am pretty sure it is c because when people are closer together, they cannot move as freely. picture being in a mostly full elevator, for instance. the people are right next to you, and you can barely move.
