Problem 2-86 Linear Kinematics - Part 4 - C

A bicyclist, traveling at 4.0km/h at the top of a hill coasts downward with constant acceleration, reaching a speed of 33km/h in 33s. What distance, in metres, does the cyclist travel in that time?

Accumulated Solution

v0=4kmh×102km×1h3600s=1.11m/sv=33kmh=1.11433=9.17m/s


No. We do not know the displacement x which is required along with a in this equation.
