Conservation of energy on an Incline
Answer: final velocity = 59cm/sec * 2 = 118cm/sec. ave acc = (118cm/sec – 0cm/sec)/(7.9sec) = 15 cm/sec/sec. Total distance traveled = 59cm/sec * 7.9sec = 442.5cm.
This looks reasonable, but you haven't included a copy of the question that's being answered here or its context. Can you provide that and resubmit?
