NOTE: You must enter the proper units in the answer box and your answer should be given to three significant figures. A particle located initially at -5.00 m accelerates from rest to a velocity of 2.80 m/s in a time interval of 1.10 s. Calculate the acceleration of the particle. HINTS: What is the initial velocity if the particle starts out "at rest"? Don't make this part harder than it needs to be. Use only the information you need to find the acceleration. Calculate the distance the particle moves during the 1.10 s time interval. HINTS: Notice that this problem asks for the distance travelled, which is really the displacement, Ax. Thus, the value of x; that is given in this problem is really not needed in solving either part of this problem. Be vigilant for instances such as these, when more information is given than needed to solve the problem. Disclaimer: You could choose to be long-winded, and use x; to find xf, and then find Ax = Xf - Xi.
