Push your limits with advanced challenges
A motorcycle accelerates uniformly from rest to 90 m/s in 15 seconds. Calculate its acceleration and the total distance covered during this time.
💡 Hint: Start by finding the acceleration with $$ a = \\frac{Δv}{Δt} $$ and use average speed to find distance.
Consider a car moving at a constant speed of 60 m/s. If it suddenly accelerates to 90 m/s in 5 seconds, what is its average acceleration? What is the total change in velocity?
💡 Hint: Use the acceleration formula and remember that total change in velocity is final speed minus initial speed.
