a car is moving 8.80 m/s when it begins to accelerate at 2.45 m/s^2. how much time does it take to trav 138m. please help me (':

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

7.6 s

Explanation:

Considering kinematics formula for final velocity as

$v^{2}=u^{2}+2as$

Where v and u are final and initial velocities, a is acceleration and s is distance moved.

Making v the subject then

$v=\sqrt{u^{2}+2as}$

Substituting 8.8 m/s for u, 138 m for s and 2.45 m/s2 for a then

$v=\sqrt{8.8^{2}+2*2.45*138}\\v=27.45 m/s$

Also, v=u+at and making t the subject of the formula

$t=\frac {v-u}{a}$

Substituting 27.45 m/s for v, 8.8 m/s for u and 2.45 m/s for a then

$t=\frac {27.45-8.8}{2.45}=7.6122448979591\approx 7.6s$

Therefore, it needs 7.6 seconds to travel
