The Bugatti Veyron requires 2.40 s to accelerate from 0 to 60.0 mi/h. Calculate the distance that the car would travel in the ti
me it takes to reach 90.0 km/h, which is the speed limit on many Canadian roads. Compare your answer to the distance that the Saleen S7 Twin Turbo would travel while accelerating to the same final speed (The Saleen S7 Twin Turbo requires 2.8 s to accelerate from 0 to 60.0 mi/h).

Recall this kinematic equation:
a =
This equation gives the acceleration of the object assuming it IS constant (the velocity changes at a uniform rate).
a is the acceleration.
Vi is the initial velocity.
Vf is the final velocity.
Δt is the amount of elapsed time.
Given values:
Vi = 0 m/s (the car starts at rest).
Vf = 25 m/s.
Δt = 10 s
Substitute the terms in the equation with the given values and solve for a:
a =
