Answer:
v = 80.092 m/s
a = 15.945 m/s²
Explanation:
Given,
The distance completed by the dragster, d = 402.3 m
The time taken by the dragster to complete that distance is, t = 5.023 s
The initial velocity of the dragster, u = 0
The final velocity of the dragster, v = ?
The acceleration of the dragster, a = ?
The velocity of the body is given by the formula
v = d/t m/s
Substituting the above values inn the equation
v = 402.3 m / 5.023 s
= 80.092 m/s
So, the velocity of the dragster is, v = 80.092 m/s
The acceleration of the body is given by the formula
a = (v - u)/t m/s²
Substituting the above values in the equation
= (80.092 - 0) / 5.023
= 15.945 m/s²
Hence, the acceleration of the dragster is, a = 15.945 m/s²
