An electric racing car accelerates along a straight section of a test track.
The car has an initial velocity of 12 m/s and accelerates at a constant rate of 4.8 m/s2 until it reaches a final velocity of 36 m/s.
Calculate the distance, xxx, the car travels while accelerating.
Use the equation:
v2−u2=2ax v^2 - u^2 = 2ax v2−u2=2ax53 exam-style questions on Edexcel GCSE Physics 2.2 Speed, velocity and acceleration. Each one has a worked solution and a mark scheme showing where the marks go.
