Slide 10 - Tekstslide

Practice exercise 1
A cyclists accelerates at a rate of 1.26 m/s2 for 6.3 seconds. Calculate his change in speed

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

Practice exercise 2
Elevators in in the Yokohama tower in Japan are among the fastest in the world. They accelerate upwards at a rate of 3.125 m/s2 for 4 seconds.
 
A) Calculate their change in speed during this acceleration.

B) If They start from rest what is their final speed in this acceleration
