- Homework Statement
- A car is moving at a constant acceleration on a horizontal road passing points A, B and C. The car travels from A to B (22 metres) in 2 seconds and then passes B to C (104 metres) in 4 seconds. What is the acceleration of the car?
Assume that acceleration from A to C is constant
- Relevant Equations
- SUVAT Equations
I tried this but I don't know if it makes sense:
Average velocity from A to B = 22/2 = 11m/s
Average velocity from B to C = 104/4 = 26m/s
(26-11)/6 = 3.75m/s
Average velocity from A to B = 22/2 = 11m/s
Average velocity from B to C = 104/4 = 26m/s
(26-11)/6 = 3.75m/s
