Answer:
1.86s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 1.2m/s
Final velocity = 6.3m/s
Acceleration = 2.75m/s²
Unknown:
Time it takes for the child to accelerate the car = ?
Solution:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
a = [tex]\frac{v - u}{t}[/tex]
a is the acceleration
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
2.75 = [tex]\frac{6.3 - 1.2}{t}[/tex]
5.1 = 2.75t
t = 1.86s
