you are building a race car. Your goal is to have a car that can go from 0 miles per hour to 80 miles per hour in 2 seconds. You are focusing on the car's
You want to focus on the car's acceleration.
(Hope this helps you! :) Have a nice day!)
Answer : Acceleration of the car is \(17.89\ m/s^2\)
Explanation :
Initial velocity of the car, u = 0 miles
Final velocity of the car, v = 80 miles/hour = 35.77 m/s
Time taken, t = 2 s
So, from the above data we are focusing on the velocity of the car w.r.t to time i.e. acceleration of the car.
\(a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\)
\(a=\dfrac{35.77\ m/s-0}{2\ s}\)
\(a=17.89\ m/s^2\)
So, the car of the car is \(17.89\ m/s^2\)
Hence, this is the required solution.
