A racecar accelerates from rest down a track at a constant rate of 18m s-2 for 6 seconds. At the finish line (after 6 seconds), it deploys a parachute in order to slow down more quickly. It stops over a distance of 200m.
- What is the velocity of the racecar after 6 seconds?
- What was the acceleration of the racecar after the parachute deployed?
- How long did it take the car to stop after the parachute deployed?
- Make a graph of velocity vs. time for the path of the racecar.
- Use this graph to find the distance the car traveled during the initial acceleration.
