Hi, all
I have a question that I've been Googling for the past hour or so, and cannot find the answer to. I seem to remember it has something to do with the logarithmic scale. I hope somebody here can answer it for me:
A car accelerates from 0 to 60km/h in 4.2 seconds. What I'd like to know is how far the car has traveled (In metres) after the 4.2 seconds - when it has attained its 60km/h speed.
We cannot assume a constant acceleration, as the speed increases gradually every second of the 4.2 seconds.
Can anybody help with this?
Cheers
