If a rocket powered sled is accelerated to a speed of 444 m/s in 1.83 seconds then what is the acceleration and what is the distance that the sled travels?

1. Acceleration: 242.6 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of the sled is given by:

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken for the sled to accelerate from u to v

For the sled in the problem, we have:

u = 0 m/s

v = 444 m/s

t = 1.83 s

Therefore, its acceleration is

2. Distance travelled by the sled: 406.3 m

Explanation:

We can solve this part of the problem by using the following SUVAT equation:

where d is the distance travelled by the sled.

By using v = 444 m/s, u = 0 m/s, and a = 242.6 m/s^2, we can re-arrange the equation and find d:

correct it is c.) b b
