RECTILINEAR MOTION
PROBLEM 4
A car starting from rest picks up at a uniform rate and passes three electric posts in
succession. The posts are spaced 360 m apart along a straight road. The car takes 10 seconds
to travel from the first post to the second post and takes 6 seconds to go from the second to the
third post. Determine the following:
a. Acceleration of the Car
b. Velocity of the car when it reach the first post
c. distance from the starting point to the first post.
