The acceleration of the car travelling in a straight line is [tex]\fbox{\begin\\1.5\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}\end{minispace}}[/tex].
Further Explanation:
A car travelling in a straight line with a constant uniform acceleration will always follow the Newton’s law of motion.
Given:
The initial velocity of the car is [tex]8\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{\text{s}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}[/tex].
The final velocity of the car is [tex]14\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{\text{s}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}[/tex].
The total distance covered by the car is [tex]44\,{\text{m}}[/tex].
Concept:
The car is following the Newton’s law of motion. As per the Newton's laws of motion, the motion of a body is governed by the three equations of motion.
To calculate the uniform acceleration of car when initial velocity, final velocity, and distance covered by car given, the equation of motion we can use here is:
[tex]\fbox{\begin\\v^2 = {u^2} + 2as\end{minispace}}[/tex]
Rearrange the above equation for value of acceleration :
[tex]a=\dfrac{{{v^2}-{u^2}}}{{2s}}[/tex]
Here, [tex]s[/tex] is the distance covered by car, [tex]u[/tex] is the given initial velocity of the car, [tex]v[/tex] is the given final velocity of the car and [tex]a[/tex] is the acceleration of the car.
Substitute [tex]14\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}[/tex] for [tex]v[/tex], [tex]8\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}}[/tex] for [tex]u[/tex] and [tex]44\,{\text{m}}[/tex] for [tex]s[/tex] in the above equation.
[tex]\begin{aligned}a&=\dfrac{{{{\left({14\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{\text{s}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}}\right)}^2}-{{\left({8\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{\text{s}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}}\right)}^2}}}{{2\times44}}\\&=1.5\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}\\\end{aligned}[/tex]
Thus, the acceleration of the car travelling in a straight line is [tex]\fbox{\begin\\1.5\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}\end{minispace}}[/tex].
