Answer:

41.02m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 0m/s

Final velocity  = 96km/hr

Time taken  = 3.07s

Unknown:

Distance traveled by the time the final speed was achieved = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we first find the acceleration of the car;

     Acceleration  = [tex]\frac{v - u }{t}[/tex]

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

  Now convert the the final velocity to m/s;

          96km/hr to m/s;

               1 km/hr  = 0.278m/s

               96km/hr  = 96 x 0.278 = 26.7m/s

Now;

 Acceleration  = [tex]\frac{26.7 - 0}{3.07}[/tex]   = 8.69m/s²

So;

   v²  = u²  + 2as

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance

             26.7²  = 0²  + 2 x 8.69 x s

             712.89  = 17.38s

                  s  = 41.02m
