This document provides the solution to problem 15 in chapter 11 from the textbook "Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Statics and Dynamics". The problem involves calculating the acceleration of an object given its initial and final velocities over a period of time. The solution separates the variables, integrates both sides of the equation, and solves for the acceleration k, which is found to be 7.5 m/s^4. An equation of motion for the velocity and position over time is then derived.
