MECHANICS Problem No. 76

Elementary Mechanics (Problem No. 1) A runner hopes to complete the 10,000-m run in less than 30.0 min. After running at constant speed for exactly 27.0 min, there are still 1100 m to go. The runner must then accelerate at m/s2 for how many seconds in order to achieve the desired time? Reference PHYSICS for SCIENTISTS & ENGINEERS with Modern Physics DOUGLAS C.
