Because a = Δv / Δt (a = vf - vi/ Δt), we need to find the acceleration first to know the change in velocity so we can determine the final velocity.
vf = 60 mi/hr
vi = 0 mi/hr
Δt = 8 secs
a = vf - vi/ Δt
= 60 mi/hr - 0 mi/hr/ 8 secs
= 60 mi/hr / 8 secs
= 7.5 mi/hr^2
Now that we know the acceleration of the car is 7. 5 mi/hr^2, we can substitute it in the acceleration formula to find the final velocity when the initial velocity is 50 mi/hr after 5 secs.
