a car starts form rest and accelerates uniformly over a time of 5.21 seconds for a distance of 110m. Determine the acceleration of the car
Given:
"v_0=0"
"t=5.21\\:\\rm s"
"d=110\\:\\rm m"
The distance traveled by a car
"d=v_0t+at^2\/2=at^2\/2"The acceleration
"a=2d\/t^2=\\rm 2*110\\: m\/(5.21\\: s)^2=8.10\\: m\/s^2"
