Question 797122: can someone please help me with this problem
The distance d traveled by an object during t seconds, when starting with velocity v and subjected to an acceleration a, is given by the equation d = (0.5)at2 + vt. A missile traveling with an initial velocity of 100 m/s fires its rocket motor for 5 seconds. During that period, it experiences an acceleration of 50 m/s2. How far does it travel during the five seconds the motor is firing

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
d = (0.5)at2 + vt. A missile traveling with an initial velocity of 100 m/s fires its rocket motor for 5 seconds. During that period, it experiences an acceleration of 50 m/s2. How far does it travel during the five seconds the motor is firing
----------------
d = (0.5)at^2 + vt
v = 100
t = 5
a = 50
Sub the numbers for the variables.
