PROBLEM A: A skater is initially caught moving at rate 30 m/s. After 5 seconds the skater has stopped at rest. Calculate the rate of change in its velocity.
1. What are the given from the Problem? *
Change in Velocity () Time Interval () Acceleration ()
5 seconds
30 m/s
5 seconds
30 m/s
2. What is required to find? *
3. What is the equation needed to solve the problem? *
4. Show your solution to the problem. *
= 30 m/s /5s
= 5s/ 30m/s
= 30m/s /5s
= 5/s/ 30m/s
5. What is the correct answer to the problem? *
6m/s²
16m/s²
6m/s
60m/s²

Answer: 1. Change in Velocity () Time Interval () Acceleration
2. -the rate of change in its velocity
3. 30 divided by 5 = 6
4. = 30 m/s divided by /5s
5. 6 m/s
