The Bugatti Veyron has a top speed in excess of 400km/hr. You need a good broadband connection to watch this movie. You may get better results by double-clicking the screen and watching it direct at dailymotion.
It accelerates from 200km/hr to 300km/hr in 9.4s
To convert from km/hr to m/s you need to divide by 3.6.
1) What is the average acceleration in m/s² over the 9.4s?
2) If the mass of the Veyron is 1950kg, what is the average force applied by the car on the road over the 9.4s?
