A car is traveling on a straight road at a constant 35 m/sm/s, which is faster than the speed limit. Just as the car passes a police motorcycle that is stopped at the side of the road, the motorcycle accelerates forward in pursuit. The motorcycle passes the car 13.5 ss after starting from rest. What is the acceleration of the motorcycle (assumed to be constant)

Answer:

2.59m/s

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

v = u+at

v is the final velocity = 35ms

u is the initially velocity = 9m/s

t is the time = 13.5s

a is the acceleration

Substitute into the formula

35 = 0+13.5a

a = 35/13.5

a = 2.59m/s²

Hence the acceleration of the motorcycle is 2.59m/s
