2. A Hyundai Santa Fe travels a 1.30km levelled road fromBonifacio roundabout to City Lights Hotel in a minimum time of45.60seconds. Given that the car accelerates and deceleratesat 2.53 m/s², which starts from rest at the roundabout andcoming to a stop at the Hotel, determine the maximum speed (inkph) and the time (in seconds) it travel at this speed. Assumetime for acceleration and deceleration are equal.

Speed is the time rate at that a car is moving along a direction, while velocity is the rate and…

Problem#4: Calculate an object’s acceleration when ? = 100 ? and when ? = 175 ?. Refer to the v-s graph below. Problem#5: As a vehicle leaves the first point, it gains a speed at the rate of 4 ??/? 2 for 6 ? and then at the rate of 6 ??/? 2 until it has reached the speed of 48 ??/?.
