A top fuel dragster is designed to go from 0 to100 miles per hour in a mere 0.8 seconds. Calculate its acceleration. Show your work and include units.

Respuesta :

The acceleration of the dragster is 2.01 * 10^5 m/s^2

What is the acceleration?

The term acceleration refers to the change in velocity with time. Hence the formula for acceleration is given as;

a = v - u/t

a = acceleration

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

Now;

v = 100 miles or 160934 meters

u = 0 miles or 0 meters

t = 0.8 seconds

a =  160934 - 0/ 0.8

a = 2.01 * 10^5 m/s^2
