A car is initially travelling 5 m/s when it accelerates for 15 s at a rate of 3 m/s2. Find the distance it covers in the 15 s.	Variable	Value
	s, distance
	v₀, initial velocity
	t, time
	a, acceleration
	v, final velocity

s	=	v_o	t	+ 1/2	a	t²
	=			+ 1/2		²

v	=	v_o	+	a	t
	=		+

v	=	√(	v_o²	+ 2	a	s)
	=	√(	²	+ 2
