0:28 Reading the problem

0:48 Seeing the problem

1:15 Translating the problem to physics

2:35 Why is it final speed and not velocity?

3:48 Solving for the acceleration

6:03 Converting initial velocity to meters per second

7:32 Solving for distance traveled.

8:05 A common mistake

10:02 Two more ways to solve for the distance traveled.

10:45 Why didn't the speedometer show the correct final speed?
