Extra HW problem for A block (Monday) and E (Tuesday)

Don't forget about the others posted earlier.

Consider a rail gun launching a small projectile at high speeds.  The projectile is launched from rest and accelerates at 200 m/s/s for 0.5 seconds.

What is the speed after this brief acceleration?

How far will the projectile have traveled?

If the projectile enters a magnetic braking zone (right after it reached the speed just attained) and is brought to a stop in 2 seconds, what is the acceleration during this time?

Draw approximate graphs that relate d vs t and v vs t for this entire problem.
