A car starts from rest and after 7 seconds it is moving at 42 m/s. What is the car’s acceleration?
A
0.17
B
1.67
C
6
D
7
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The final velocity is 42 m/s and time is 7 seconds. = 42 m/s / 7 s = 6 m/s². Therefore, the acceleration of the car is 6 m/s².

Detailed explanation-2: -Hence, the acceleration of car is 0.33 m/s².

Detailed explanation-3: -The acceleration of cars in the United States is stated as a “zero to sixty” time, where vi is zero and vf is 60 miles per hour or 27 meters per second. The average rate of acceleration of all the ordinary cars I found was between 3 and 4 m/s2.
