Answer:
a = 2.72 [m/s2]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the following kinematics equation:
[tex]v_{f} =v_{o} + a*t[/tex]
where:
Vf = final velocity = 1200 [km/h]
Vo = initial velocity = 25 [km/h]
t = time = 2 [min] = 2/60 = 0.0333 [h]
1200 = 25 + (a*0.0333)
a = 35250.35 [km/h2]
if we convert these units to units of meters per second squared
[tex]35250.35[\frac{km}{h^{2} }]*(\frac{1}{3600^{2} })*[\frac{h^{2} }{s^{2} } ]*(\frac{1000}{1} )*[\frac{m}{km} ] = 2.72 [\frac{m}{s^{2} } ][/tex]
