Question

The 1200-horsepower Bugatti accelerates from zero to 60 miles per hour in 2.5 seconds. This yields an average acceleration of 10.7 m/s squared. At this acceleration, how far will it travel from a stop in 10.0 seconds?

Answer 1

\[s = ut + \frac12 a t^2\]
s = distance
u = initial speed
t = time
a = acceleration

Answer 2

so in this case:
s = distance = ???
u = initial speed = 0 (from a stop)
t = time = 10 sec
a = acceleration = 10.7 m/s

so sub the above values into
\[s = ut + \frac12 a t^2\]
and solve for s

Answer 3

how did u go @jody999 ?
