A VW Beetle goes from 0 to 60.0 mi/h with an acceleration of +2.35 m/s^2. (a) How much time does it take for the beetle to reach

this speed? (b) A top-fuel dragster can go from 0 to 30 mi/h in 0.600 s. Find the acceleration (in m/s^2) of the dragster?

Im going to tell you what to do but not the result. So pay close attention: the first thing you need to do is convert miles/h to m/s. Then for the part a) <span>divide the final velocity by the initial velocity. That will give you the amount of it will take to accelerate to the final velocity.Now for the part b you </span>use the formula v=vo+at. I hope this can help you
