Static and Kinetic Friction

Kinetic friction comes into existence when there are moving surfaces means in other words we can say that the force which comes into existing between moving surfaces is known as kinetic friction.

When a 1984 Alfa Romeo Spider sports car accelerates at the maximum possible rate, its motion during the first 20 s is extremely well modeled by the simple equation: v2x =(2P/m)*twhere P=3.6×104 W is the car's power output, m = 1200kg is its mass, and vx is in m/s. That is, the square of the car's velocity increases linearly with time Find a symbolic expression, in terms of P, m, and t, for the car's acceleration at time t.
