Question 1056557: Find the distance required for a car to reach a velocity of 60 m/s when the acceleration is 12 m/s^2. Use the equation v = sqrt(2as) where v is the velocity, a is the acceleration, and s is the distance. Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the distance required for a car to reach a velocity of 60 m/s when the acceleration is 12 m/s^2.
Use the equation v = sqrt(2as) where v is the velocity, a is the acceleration, and s is the distance.
:
v = 60; a = 12;
square both sides
24s = 60^2
24s = 3600
s = 3600/24
s = 150 meters to accelerate to 60 m/sec
