The head of a rattlesnake can accelerate at 50 m/s2 in striking a victim. If a car could do as well, how long would it take to reach a speed of 100 km/h from rest

the time for the car to reach the final velocity is 0.56 s.

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the car, a = 50 m/s²

final velocity of the car, v = 100 km/h = 27.778 m/s

the initial velocity of the car, u = 0

The time for the car to reach the final velocity is calculated as;

v = u + at

27.778 = 0 + 50t

27.778 =  50t

t = 27.778 / 50

t = 0.56 s

Therefore, the time for the car to reach the final velocity is 0.56 s.
