Answer:

We know that, the kinetic energy

ke=  \frac{1 }{2} m{v}^{2}  

and we also know that the acceleration causes the speed's value to be doubled

Hence, v becomes 2v

When 2v is squared, it becomes 4v^2. After substituting this value in the equation above and comparing it,

We can conclude that the Kinetic Energy has increased

by a factor of 4

A world-class sprinter can burst out of the blocks to essentially top speed (of about 11.5 m/s) in the first 15.0 m of the race.
wolverine [178]
Given:
u = 0, initial speed (sprinter starts from rest)
v = 11.5 m/s, final speed
s = 15 m, distance traveled to attain final speed.

Let
a =  average acceleration,
t = time taken to attain final speed.

Then
v² = u² + 2as
or
(11.5 m/s)² = 2*(a m/s²)*(15 m)
a = 11.5²/(2*15) = 4.408 m/s²

Also
v = u +a t
or
(11.5 m/s) = (4.408 m/s²)*(t s)
t = 11.5/4.408 = 2.609 s

Answer:
The average acceleration is 4.41 m/s² (nearest hundredth).
The time required is 2.61 s (nearest hundredth).
