Question

21. A toy car starts from rest and accelerates at 1.50 m/s’ [E] for 5.25 s. What is the final

velocity, V, of the car? Show your work.

Answer 1

Answer: The final Velocity, V, of the car is 7.9m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Toy car starts from rest, therefore,

Initial Velocity (u) = 0

Acceleration (a) = 1.5m/s^2 E for time, t = 5.25s

Final velocity (V) of the car =?

Using the motion equation:

v = u + at

Where v = final Velocity

u = Initial Velocity

a = acceleration

t = time

v = 0 + 1.5(5.25)

v = 0 + 7.875

v = 7.875m/s

v = 7.9m/s
