A person is traveling along a straight road. He moves at a steady 32 m/sec for 6.0 seconds, and then they slow down at a steady rate of 4.0 meters/sec^2 until they come to a stop. (question below)

Their speed was steady from time = 0 sec to time = 6 sec. What was their speed at time = 9 seconds?I set my equation up like this -4.0 m/s^2 = (v(final) - 32 m/s)/9 s and I got 4 m/s going backward... more

Is this statement true: “If an object’s velocity is zero, its acceleration must be zero"

I said it is true because if an object is not moving then it must have no acceleration.I got confused because I wasn't sure if it stated 0 was the avg velocity or not.any help would be appreciated.
