Based on the kinematic formula:

$v^2 = v_o^2 + 2ax$

We have the following known information:

Acceleration a = 2.55 m/s²

$v_0 = 21.8 m/s$

$v = 0$

We want to determine x.

Rearranging the equation, we get:

$0^2 = 21.8^2 + 2(2.55)x$

$0 = 475.24 + 5.1 x$

$x = 93.2 m$

Therefore, the object travels a distance of 93.2 meters.

Answer:

x = -93.18 meters

Explanation:

The equation is:

$v^2=v_o^2+2ax$ ...........(1)

Known values are:

$a=2.55\ m/s^2$

$v_o=21.8\ m/s$

$v=0\ m/s$

Substituting these values into equation (1):

$0=(21.8\ m/s)^2+2\times 2.55\ m/s^2\times x$

The result is x = -93.18 meters

Thus, the value of x is -93.18 meters, which is the required solution.
