PLEASE USE KINEMATIC EQUATIONS!!!

A bumper car (Car A) accelerates at 1.5 m/s^2 to a speed of 6 m/s and then continues at that constant velocity until it strikes Car B 15 m away. Calculate the total time for Car A to travel 15 m.

Answer :

The total time for car to travel the given distance is 2 s.

Time of motion of the car

The time of motion of the car is determined by applying second kinematic equation as shown below;

[tex]s = vt + \frac{1}{2}at^2\\\\[/tex]

where;

  • v is the constant speed = 6m/s
  • t is the time of motion = ?
  • a is the acceleration = 1.5 m/s²
  • s is the distance traveled by the car = 15 m

Thus, the total time for car to travel the given distance is 2 s.
