Question

A car starts from rest and accelerated at a rate of 9m/s squared for 6.5 seconds. How much distance was covered by the car?

please explain and give answer if possible

Answer 1

58.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find your formula. Use distance = speed x time for this problem

2. Plug in the given information. d (for distance) = 9m/s^2 * 6.5 s

3. Multiply number AND units. d = 58.5m

4. Check to make sure units & numbers make sense. In this case check that the answer is a lot bigger than what we stated with and that our units go with distance
