An object is moving with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. If it is decelerating at 5 m/s2 how far does it travel before it stops

The object travels a distance of 40 meters before it stops.

Explanation:

A body moves with constant acceleration motion or uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion (u.a.r.m) when the trajectory of the mobile is a straight line and its speed varies the same amount in each unit of time.

Torricelli's equation relates the speed to the space traveled by the body in u.a.r.m. To calculate the velocity of a body as a function of space, the expression is used:

Where :

In this case:

Replacing:

Solving:

40 m= d

The object travels a distance of 40 meters before it stops.

as we probably am aware that our atmosphere or air have various levels, each level has different gasses, and each gas has another porousness. at the point when the light originates from lower porousness to higher penetrability, it alters its course. with the goal that implies that when the light originates from the moon to the earth, it alters it's course a lot more occasions. it essentially implies that the state of the light piece of the moon is changed on the earth.

not copied too! hope this !
