(PLEASE HELP THANK YOU) A car is going 8 meters per second on an access road into a highway and then accelerates at 1.8 meters per second squared for 7.2 m seconds. How fast is it then going?

Answer:

20.96 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the kinematic equation:

Vf=Vi+at

Vi=8m/s

a=1.8m/s^2

t=7.2s

Putting this all in should give you your answer of 12.96m/s
