A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 6.6 m/s2 for 10 seconds.

Question: How far does the car travel?

A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 6.6 m/s2 for 10 seconds. How far does the car travel? Explanation:

s = ut + 1/2at²

= 0(10) + 1/2×6.6×(10)²

= 3.3 × 100

= 330 m
