Joe is trying to soup up his dragster. He knows that the time needed for the car to go from 0 to 100 miles per hour varies inversely with the car's horsepower. At 200 horsepower, the car can go from 0 to 100 mph in 10 seconds. How long should the car take if he can increase the horsepower to 250 hp?

Question

0 to 100 in 10 seconds is too fast for a mere 200 horsepower.

It would depend on if the car is manual, 4WD or RWD, and the weight, along with the HP. This question is false.
