Answer:
The total distance traveled by the toy car is 14 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the car, u = 0
final velocity of the car, v = 4 m/s
time of motion, t₁ = 3 s
constant deceleration of the car, -a = 0.5 m/s²
time of motion, t₂ = 4 s
The total distance traveled by the car, is the area of triangle ABC (check the image uploaded).
[tex]Total \ distance = Area = \frac{1}{2} |BC| \times H\\\\Total \ distance = \frac{1}{2} \times 4\times 7\\\\Total \ distance = 14 \ m[/tex]
