CAPA help please :)
Hi,

So i have my first CAPA assignment due tomorrow, and was wondering if anyone can offer some assistance with these questions? Any advice would be great!!!!! Also, just wondering if anyone has any advice on how to solve these questions in the future --> like where to go (I went to PHI and my prof's office hours but I still don't get these questions)

A sprinter can accelerate with constant acceleration for 2.36s before reaching top speed. He can run 142.0m in 19.3s. What is his speed as he crosses the finish line?

A locomotive is accelerating at 1.53m/s2. It passes through a 20.0-m-wide crossing in a time of 2.50s. After the locomotive leaves the crossing, how much time is required until its speed reaches 39.0m/s?

Let me guess, CAPA is due noon or so?

If that's the case, you should to go to the Physics Help Guys in the basement of Thode, they are always helpful.
