Question

a car traveling at 20 m s accelerates uniformly at 3 m/s^2 for 5s. calculate the distance the car travels while it is accelerating. i need how to work it out more than the answer

Answer 1

Do you know the distance formula?

Answer 2

s = d/t so d = s X t ?

Answer 3

\(d=v_it + \frac{1}{2}at^2\), since a is uniform, you can use this formula.
where \(v_i= 20 m/s\), \(a=3 m/s^2\) and \(t=5s\)
