The acceleration of the race car is 6 m/s²
The given parameters;
- initial velocity of the race car, u = 6 m/s
- final velocity of the race car, v = 36 m/s
Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity per change in time of motion.
- At a constant velocity, the acceleration of the car will be zero
- If the acceleration is constant, then the change in velocity occurs at a constant rate or equal time interval.
- As the change in velocity increases, the acceleration of the car will increase as well.
The acceleration of the race car is calculated as follows;
[tex]a=\frac{v-u}{t} \\\\a = \frac{36-6}{5} \\\\a = 6 \ m/s^2[/tex]
Thus, the acceleration of the race car at the given velocities and time interval is 6 m/s²
