Question

Calculate the acceleration of a car if its speed increases from 4.0 m/s to 16 m/s in 3.7 s.

Answer 1

3.24m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

U = 4m/s

V = 16m/s

t = 3.7secs

Acceleration is change in velocity with time i.e

a = (V — U) / t

a = (16 — 4) / 3.7

a = 12/3.7

a = 3.24m/s^2
