A cyclist coasting on a level road slows from a speed of 10 miles/hr to 2.5 miles/hr in one minute. Write a computer program that calculates the cyclist’s constant rate of deceleration and determines how long it will take the cyclist to come to rest, given an initial speed of 10 miles/hr. (Hint: Use the equation

a = (vf- vi) / t,

where a is acceleration, t is time interval, vi is initial velocity, and vf is the final velocity.) Write and call a function that displays instructions to the program user and another function that computes and returns the deceleration given vf, vi, and t.
