A car starting from rest, accelerates in a straight road at a constant rate of 3.0 $$ms^{-2}$$ for 8 s. Find the distance travelled by the car during this time.
We know that acceleration is speed per unit timeÂ
therefore speed is 24 m/sÂ
we also know that speed is distance upon timeÂ
so distance is $$speed\times{time} = 24\times{8}$$
 hence distance is 192
