Watch out for units on this one!
A car is moving at a velocity of 63km/h. The car driver gives more gas and the velocity increases to 90km/h with a constant acceleration in 5 seconds.
a. Calculate the acceleration of the car in m/s per second (= m/s2)
b. Calculate the final speed if the acceleration takes 6 seconds instead of 5 seconds. Give you answer in km/h

The above graph represents the deceleratin of car X.
a. What is the deceleration of this car? Show your formula + calculation + correct units
b. Car Y is travelling at the same velocity as car X, but on a very slippery road. The net braking force is halved because the road is so slippery. What is the the deceleration of car Y?
c. How long does car Y take to come to a stop? Show your formula + calculation + correct units
