.A box falls to the ground from a delivery truck traveling at 30 m/s. After hitting the road, it slides 45 m to
rest. How long does it take the box to come to rest

Respuesta :

Answer:

t = 3 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed, u = 30 m/s

Final speed, v = 0

It slides 45 m to rest.it take the box to come to rest

We need to find how long it take the box to come to rest.

Let a be the acceleration and t is time.

[tex]v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2d}\\\\a=\dfrac{(30)^2-u^2}{2(45)}\\\\=10\ m/s^2[/tex]

Now finding time.

[tex]t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{30-0}{10}\\\\t=3\ s[/tex]

So, the required time is 3 seconds.
