Question

A car in front of the school goes from rest to 5.6 m/s in 3 seconds. What is its acceleration?

Answer 1

1.867 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Acceleration = (v2 - v1) / time

v1 : the car is at rest, therefore v1 is 0 m/s

v2 = 5.6 m/s

t = 3

therefore acceleration = (5.6-0)/3 = 5.6 /3 = 1.867 m/s^2
