linear algebra Find an equation in three unknowns whose solution space is the ... show more Algebra Anonymous 7m left to answer velocity and acceleration function A car is travelling at the rate of 60 ft/sec (just under 41 mi/hr) when the brakes are applied. The position function for the car is , where s is measured in feet and t is measured in seconds. What is the velocity function for the car? What is the acceleration function for the car? How long does it take the car to stop? Answer this question Show less Calculus

Explanation / Answer

1. v = v(initial) + acceleration * time

v(initial) = 0 because the object was at rest, therefore it's just accel. * time

2. a = change in velocity / change in time

That is: (ending velocity (found from 1.) - initial velocity (which is 0 again) ) / (ending time - initial time (which is 0))

3. t = (v(final) - v(initial)) / a

These variables are found from 1. and 2.
