Question

A different car in the next lane accelerates from rest to 30 m/s at a rate of 6 m/s^2 for 5 seconds. How far does this car travel during this period?

Answer 1

You can use equation 4 for this:

`\left(30\,(\mathrm m)/(\mathrm s)\right)^2=0^2+2\left(6\,(\mathrm m)/(\mathrm s^2)\right)\Delta x`

`\implies\Delta x=75\,\mathrm m`
