Answer:
53.64 m/s
Explanation:
Applying,
a = (v-u)/t............. Equation 1
Where a = acceleration of the car, v = final velocity of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, t = time.
make u the subject of the equation
u = v-at............. Equation 2
From the question,
Given: a = -12 mph/s = -5.364 m/s², t = 10 seconds, v = 0 m/s (comes to stop)
Substitute these values into equation 2
u = 0-(-5.364×10)
u = 0+53.64
u = 53.64 m/s
