An electric vehicle starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.3 m/s2 in a straight line until it reaches a speed of 18 m/s. The vehicle then slows at a constant rate of 1.0 m/s2 until it stops. (a) How much time elapses from start to stop

1) when you rub your hands together quickly, the kinetic energy is converted to mechanical energy.2) thermal energy from the sun travels to earth as infrared waves.3) energy is transferred through the matter of space by electromagnetic waves. 4) when a match is burned, chemical potential energy is converted to thermal and radiant energy. 5) seismicwaves are caused by back and forth movement , or vibration, of an object. 6) mechanicalenergy in an engine changes thermal energy into kinetic energy to make a car move.
