t = 3.516 s

Explanation:

The most useful kinematic formula would be the velocity of the motorcylce as a function of time, which is:

Where v_0 is the initial velocity and a is the acceleration. However the problem states that the motorcyle start at rest therefore v_0 = 0

If we want to know the time it takes to achieve that speed, we first need to convert units from km/h to m/s.

This can be done knowing that

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 s

Therefore

1 km/h = (1000/3600) m/s = 0.2777... m/s

100 km/h = 27.777... m/s

Now we are looking for the time t, for which v(t) = 27.77 m/s. That is:

27.777 m/s = 7.9 m/s^2 t

Solving for t

t = (27.7777 / 7.9) s = 3.516 s
