Question

A car can go from 0 to 60 m/s in 5 seconds. What is the acceleration?

A) 50 m/s^2

B) 6 m/s^2

C) 12 m/s^2

D) 300 m/s^2

I think it’s 12 because I did the difference divided by 5 but some places said there was no acceleration

Answer 1

12

Step-by-step explanation:

i agree the answer is 12 because the acceleration is given by the difference in the velocity divided by the time taken

a=v-u/t

60-0/5

=12m/s²

I hope this helps
