Answer:
a) 6m/s, 0m/s, -6m/s
b) 16m, 25m, 16m
Explanation:
For the first part of the problem, use the Kinematic Equation for Final Velocity:
You are looking for the final velocities of the times: 2s, 5s, and 8s (plug those in for t). We also know that the acceleration is going down so it is negative (-2 is plugged in for a). 10 is the initial velocity and it is positive.
For the second part of the problem, use the Kinematic Equation for Displacement:
You are looking for the displacement of the piano at times: 2s, 5s, and 8s (plug in and square at t). Again, the acceleration is negative because it is in the direction of down, so plug -2 in for a. The initial velocity is positive 10. Plugging those numbers in for each variable should get the correct answer.
Hopefully this helped, I went on here in search of an answer and found it out myself and since no one has answered it yet, I'll help someone else out.
