Chapter 12 Problem 12-30

Question

A sphere is fired downwards into a medium with an initial speed of 27 m>s. If it experiences a deceleration of a = (-6t) m>s 2 , where t is in seconds, determine the distance traveled before it stops.

Solution

Step 1 of 7)

The first step in solving 12 problem number 30 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A sphere is fired downwards into a medium with an initial speed of 27 m>s. If it experiences a deceleration of a = (-6t) m>s 2 , where t is in seconds, determine the distance traveled before it stops.
From the textbook chapter Kinematics of a Particle you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
