Problem

A car moves on a straight road and comes to rest under a constant retardation of 7 m/s27\text{ m/s}^2. Focus on the final one second immediately before the car stops. At the end of this one-second interval the velocity becomes zero. Using correct sign convention in the kinematic equations, compute the numerical value of the distance travelled during this last one-second interval.
