Question
Hello. I asked for help with this question, but question (a) had the only correct solution. Assistance on the other two would be greatly appreciated. A hot rod can accelerate from 0 to 64 km/h in 5.1 s.(a) What is its average acceleration, in m/s2, during this time?
Answer: 3.48 m/s2
(b) How far will it travel (in meters) during the 5.1 s, assuming its acceleration is constant?
(c) How much time (in seconds) would it require to go a distance of 0.20 km if its acceleration could be maintained at the value in (a)?

Explanation / Answer
A hot rod can accelerate from 0 to 64 km/h initial velocity is v_0 = 0 m/s final velocity is v = 64 km/ h = 17.7 m/s a ) Average acceleration during the time t = 5.1 s a _avg = v - v_0 / t = 17.7 m/s - 0 m/s / 5.1 s = 3.48m/s^2 b ) distance travel is d = average speed * time = 17.7 m/s - 0 m/s * 5.1 m/s = 90.27 m c ) distance travel is d = 0.20 km = 200m d = average speed * time t = 200 m / 17.7 m/s = 11.2 sRelated Questions
