Hey guys,
I've been looking around online and only find formulae for car passing through a distance with an initial velocity but nothing to calculate the speed of an object starting from a stance and accelerating to complete a distance.
I have a car that has done a 1/4 mile (375m) and completes it in 7.671 seconds. I calculated the acceleration at 12.74m/s. Can anyone help me figure out the speed across the line?
I've tried .25/ (7.671/3600) and I get 117mph which is wrong..
