Question

14) A race car accelerates from rest to a velocity of 41 m/s in 480 m. What is the acceleration of the race car?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

V₀ = 0 m/s

V = 41 m/s

S = 480 m

___________

a - ?

Distance traveled:

S = (V² - V₀²) / (2*a)

Acceleration :

a = (V² - V₀²) / (2*S)

a = (41² - 0²) / (2*480) = 1.75 m/s²
