An electric toy car with a mass of 6 kg is powered by a motor with a voltage of 9 V and a current supply of 7 A. How long will it take for the toy car to accelerate from rest to 8/3 m/s?

The time is =0.34s

Explanation:

Voltage is U=9V

Current is I=7A

The power is

P=UI=9*7=63W

Velocity is v=8/3ms^-1

Mass is m=6kg

The kinetic energy is

KE=1/2mv^2=1/2*6*(8/3)^2=64/3J

But,

E=P*t

The time is t=E/P=(64/3)/63=0.34s
