Answer:
The acceleration of the car is [tex]3.7\ m/s^2[/tex].
Explanation:
It is given that,
Initial speed of the car, u = 0
Final speed of the car, v = 60 km/h = 16.66 m/s
Time, t = 4.5 s
We need to find the acceleration of the car. It is equal to the change in velocity divided by time taken. It can be given by :
[tex]a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{16.66-0}{4.5}\\\\a=3.7\ m/s^2[/tex]
So, the acceleration of the car is [tex]3.7\ m/s^2[/tex]. Hence, this is the required solution.
