Question 39

An electric car is stationary at the starting line of a straight test track.

The car accelerates from a speed of 0 m/s to a speed of 60 m/s.

The acceleration of the car is 5 m/s2.

Calculate the distance, sss, travelled by the car while it is accelerating.

Use the equation:

s=v2−u22a s = \frac{v^2 - u^2}{2a} s=2av2−u2​
