Tom, the driver, had nitrogenous oxide to boost his speed. If the nitrogenous oxide was capable of boosting the speed by 10.7 mph, and he only had enough to last 90 seconds, how many feet from the finish line should he engage the nitrous in a last ditch effort to win?
You will need to give the initial velocity of the car, otherwise this problem cannot be solved.
Even if given the original velocity, this would not be a simple d= r x t problem as this would involve an acceleration period and would be calculated using this equation:
If you assumed instantaneous acceleration (which is impossible) a = (V - Vo)/ t, where t is zero.
