Car A is traveling to the right with a speed of 29​​m/s when the rider slams on the accelerator to pass car B. Car A passes car B in 110 m with constant acceleration and reaches a speed of 34m/s. We want to find the acceleration of the car as it speeds up. What equation should you choose?

• v_f=v_i+at

• Δx=v_it+1/2at²

• v_f²=v_i²+2aΔX

• Δx=((v_f+v_i)/2)t

Which equation is appropriate?

• v_f=v_i+at

• Δx=v_it+1/2at²

• v_f²=v_i²+2aΔX

• Δx=((v_f+v_i)/2)t
