Two engineers are working to calculate the acceleration of a new car design. they submit the following testing procedure to you for approval:
step 1)
start with the car at rest at the 0m mark.
step 2)
push down the gas pedal all the way.
step 3)
allow the car to travel 50m with the gas pedal pressed down.
step 4)
record the velocity of the car as it crosses the 50m mark.
if your company adopts these procedures, will you be able to calculate the acceleration of the new car?
