Question

A car accelerates uniformly in a straight line

Answer 1

Answer:

21.59 m/s

Explanation:

recall that one of the equations of motions can be expressed as

v² = u² + 2as

where,

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

u = initial velocity = 0m/s (because it says that it starts from rest)

a = acceleration = 3.7m/s²

s = distance travelled = 63 m

simply substitute the known values above into the equation:

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0² + 2(3.7)(63)

v² = 466.2

v = √466.2

v = 21.59 m/s
