A car starts from rest and attains a velocity of 30m/s in 5 sec. calculate the total distance travel by that car and acceleration

Acceleration (a) = 6 m/s²

Total distance travel by car (s) = 75 meter

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0

Final velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Time (t) = 5 sec

Find:

Total distance travel by car (s) = ?

Acceleration (a) = ?

Computation:

v = u + at

30 = 0 + a (5)

30 = a (5)

Acceleration (a) = 6 m/s²

Total distance travel by car (s) = ut + 1/2 (a) (t) ²

Total distance travel by car (s) = 1/2 (a) (t) ²

Total distance travel by car (s) = (0.5) (6) (5) ²

Total distance travel by car (s) = 75 meter
