Question

In this first example of constant accelerated motion, we will simply consider a car that is initially traveling along a straight stretch of highway at 15 m/s. At t=0 the car begins to accelerate at 2.0 m/s2 in order to pass a truck. What is the velocity of the car after 5.0 s have elapsed?

Answer 1

`v_(f) =25m/s`

Step-by-step explanation:

Kinematics equation for constant acceleration:

`v_(f)  =v_(o) + at=15+2*5=25m/s`
