Question:

A speed ramp at an airport is basically a large conveyor belt on which you can stand and be moved along. The belt of one ramp moves at a constant speed such that a person who stands still on it leaves the ramp 64 s after getting on. Clifford is in a real hurry, however, and skips the speed ramp. Starting from rest with an acceleration of 0.37 m/s2, he covers the same distance as the ramp does, but in one-fourth the time. What is the speed at which the belt of the ramp is moving?
