Question

if a car has a constant acceleration of 4 m/s^2, starting from rest, how fast is it traveling after 5 seconds?​

Answer 1

Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

Recall that one of the equations of motions can be written:

v = u + at, (also see attached for reference)

Where,

v = final speed (we are asked to find this)

u = initial speed = 0 (because it starts from rest)

t = time taken = 5s

We simply substitute the given values into the equation:

v = u + at

v = 0 + (4)(5)

v = 20 m/s

Answer 2

Answer:If a car has a constant acceleration of 4 m/s2, starting from rest, how far has it traveled after 5 seconds? The distance travelled in 5s.
