A motorbike reaches a speed of 20 m/s over 60m, whilst accelerating at 3m/s?, determine the bike's initial speed.

Initial speed = 2√10 m/s

Linear motion consists of 2: constant velocity motion with constant velocity and uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration  

An equation of uniformly accelerated motion  

V = vo + at  

Vt² = vo² + 2a (x-xo)  

x = distance on t  

vo / vi = initial speed  

vt / vf = speed on t / final speed  

a = acceleration  

vf=20 m/s

d = 60 m

a = 3 m/s²

heat the gas and measure the pressure
