An ice skater accelerates backward for 5.0 second to final speed of 12m/s. If the acceleration backward was at a a rate of 1.5m/s2 what was the skater's initial speed

Initial velocity, U = 4.5m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Final velocity, v = 12m/s

Time, t = 5 seconds

Acceleration, a = 1.5m/s²

To find the initial velocity, we would use the first equation of motion.

Where;

V is the final velocity.

U is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

12 = U + 1.5*5

12 = U + 7.5

U = 12 - 7.5

Initial velocity, U = 4.5m/s

both the fifth and fourteenth amendments of the united states contain a due process clause. while the fifth amendment describes a legal obligation of the federal government to not deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law, the fourteenth amendment applies the same obligation to the states to guarantee that all of the states provide fair procedures as well.
