In 1898, the world land speed record was set by Gaston Chasseloup-Laubat driving a car named Jeantaud. His speed was 39.24 mph (63.15 km/h), much lower than the limit on our interstate highways today. Repeat the calculations of Example 2.7 (assume the car accelerates for 6 miles to get up to speed, is then timed for a one-mile distance, and accelerates for another 6 miles to come to a stop) for the Jeantaud car. (Assume the car moves in the x direction.)
Required:
a. Find the acceleration for the first 6 miles.
b. How long did the Jeantaud take to cover the timed mile?
c. What was the acceleration for the last 6 miles?
