1 km = 1000 m

1 hr = 3600 s

So, 18 km/hr = (18 * 1000) / (3600) m/s = 5 m/s

And 2 m/s^2 = 2 m/s^2

Now, we can use the formula for final velocity (v) when an object starts with an initial velocity (u) and accelerates at a constant rate (a) for a given time (t):

v = u + at

Plugging in the values, we get:

v = 5 + (2 * 5) m/s v = 15 m/s

To convert this back to km/hr, we use the inverse conversions: v = (15 * 3600) / (1000) km/hr v = 54 km/hr

Therefore, the car’s velocity in km/hr after 5 seconds is 54 km/hr.
