A Rabbit, Initially Hopping At 0.5 M/S Sees A Fox And Accelerates At A Rate Of 1.5 M/S2 For 3.0 S. What Is The Rabbit2019s Final Velocity?

A rabbit, initially hopping at 0.5 m/s sees a fox and accelerates at a rate of 1.5 m/s2 for 3.0 s. What is the rabbit's final velocity?

Answer:

The rabbits final velocity is 5.0 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

$V_{0} = 0.5 \frac{m}{s}$

$a = 1.5 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

$t = 3.0 s$

Formula:

$V_{f} = V_{0} + at$

Solution:

$V_{f} = 0.5 \frac{m}{s} + (1.5 \frac{m}{s^{2}})(3.0 s)$

$V_{f} = 0.5 \frac{m}{s} + 4.5 \frac{m}{s}$

$V_{f} = 5.0 \frac{m}{s}$

Answer:

$V_{f} = 5.0 \frac{m}{s}$
