You are on your way home and you accelerate from an initial speed of 12 m/s at a constant rate of 1.2 m/s^2. What is the final speed of your car after 15 seconds?
(What's given?)
V0
a
t
Vf
You are on your way home and you accelerate from an initial speed of 12 m/s at a constant rate of 1.2 m/s^2. What is the final speed of your car after 15 seconds?
(What are you solving for?)

You are on your way home and you accelerate from an initial speed of 12 m/s at a constant rate of 1.2 m/s^2. What is the final speed of your car after 15 seconds?
(What equation are you using?)
a=v/t
v=v/2
v=v0(t)+1/2(a)(t)^2
vf=v0+(a)(t)
