The car travels a distance <em>d</em> from rest with acceleration <em>a</em> after time <em>t</em> of
<em>d</em> = 1/2 <em>a</em> <em>t</em>²
It covers 69 m with 2.8 m/s² acceleration, so that
69 m = 1/2 (2.8 m/s²) <em>t</em>²
<em>t</em>² = 2 (69 m) / (2.8 m/s²)
<em>t</em> ≈ 7.02 s
where we take the positive square root because we're talking about time *after* the car begins accelerating.
