An SUV travels a 1.30 km levelled road from Bonifacio Rotunda to Citylights Hotel ig a minimum time of 45.60 sec. The SUV starts from rest at the Rotunda, travels at constant speed for some time and will stop at Citylights Hotel. Given that the car accelerates and decelerates at 2.53 m/s, determine: a. The maximum speed (in kph) b. The time (in seconds) it travels at this speed. Assume that the time for accelerating and decelerating are equal.
