Because acceleration is constant, the acceleration of the car at any time is the same as its average acceleration over the duration. So
Now, we have that
so we end up with a distance traveled of

We can use the kinematic equation
where Vf is what we are looking for
Vi is 0 since we start from rest
a is acceleration
and d is the distance
we get
(Vf)^2 = (0)^2 + 2*(2)*(500)
(Vf)^2 = 2000
Vf = about 44.721
or 44.7 m/s [if you are rounding this by significant figures]
