Question

How much faster will a car be going if it accelerates at 1 m/s/s for a total of 60 seconds.

Answer 1

Vf = 60 [m/s]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

`v_(f)= v_(i)+(a*t)`

where:

Vf = final velocity [m/s]

Vi = initial velocity = 0

a = acceleration = 1 [m/s^2]

t = time = 60 [m]

Now replacing:

Vf = 0 + (1*60)

Vf = 60 [m/s]
