Answer :

We have the next data

vi=initial velocity=34.6 m/s

a=acceleration=-3.5 m/s^2

t=time=3s

we need to find the final velocity (vf)

We will use the next formula

[tex]a=\frac{vf-vi}{t}[/tex]

then we substitute the data

[tex]-3.4=\frac{vf-34.6}{3}[/tex]

then we isolate the vf

[tex]vf=-3.4(3)+34.6[/tex][tex]vf=-10.2+34.6[/tex]

[tex]vf=24.4\text{ m/s}[/tex]

the velocity of the car after 3 seconds is 24.4 m/s
