A car starts from rest and drives in a straight line for the next 3.8 km distance in the East direction with a constant horizontal acceleration. If it took 10 minutes for the car to travel that 3.8 km;      a) What is the acceleration of the car?      b) What will be the instantaneous velocity of the car while at the 3.8 km distance?      c) While at the 3.8 km distance, the driver made arrangements to the car in such a way that the car's acceleration becomes zero. How far the car will travel in the next 4 minutes?
