A dragster traveling at 5 m/s north increases its velocity to 23 m/s north in 4 seconds. What is its acceleration during this time interval?

A dragster going at 5 m/s north increases its velocity to 23 m/s north in 4 seconds. What is its acceleration during this time interval? In order to calculate the acceleration of the boat we first have to identify the suited formula for acceleration in this scenario.
Hence, a = vf – vi / t. Vi = 5 m/s Vf = 23 m/s T = 4 seconds
Solution: A = 23 m/s – 5m/s / 4s A = 4.5m/s^2

The acceleration of the dragster is calculated using the formula a = t v f ​ − v i ​ ​ . After substituting the known values, the acceleration is determined to be 4.5 m/s 2 .
