Problema Solution

if a ball rolls down an inclined plane, it's velocity v(t) (in cm/sec) at time t (in seconds) is given by v(t)=v(subzero)+at for initial velocity v(subzero) and acceleration a (in cm/sec^2). if v(2)= 16 and v(5)=25 find v and a

Answer provided by our tutors

v(2)= 16 and v(5)=25


v + 2a = 16


v + 5a = 25


by solving the above system of equations we find:


a = 3 cm/sec^2


v = 10 cm/sec
