Kinematics of motion in a straight line — practice question
A bus travels in a straight line from one bus stop to another. It begins from rest and accelerates at $2.1\,\text{m s}^{-2}$ for $5\,\text{s}$. It then continues at a constant speed for $24\,\text{s}$ before slowing down with a constant deceleration and coming to rest after a further $6\,\text{s}$.
